After the Chinese New Year.

"Hero" broke 100 million in 7 days and 200 million in 19 days, and after more than 40 days of release, the box office settled on 263 million. Theaters are offline on a large scale, and only sporadic income is left, which does not affect the overall situation.

The box office of the original version was 248 million.

In 2002, the box office revenue in the mainland market was 920 million yuan, and the imported films were about 420 million yuan. In other words, "Hero" accounted for 35% of the year.

Zhang Guoshi, who was born in literary films, has experienced a hundred times stronger commercial pursuit than awards, and at least in recent years, he has become the most influential director in China.

Looking at "Infernal Affairs" again, the box office is fixed at 55 million.

Under the instruction of Mr. Xu, Lao Song prepared the trilogy unhurriedly and sold the copyright by the way. Paramount, Warner, Fox, and DreamWorks competed and finally sold to Warner, the highest bidder, for $1.75 million.

The film will be remade into "The Departed", directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Xiao Li and Matt Damon. The box office was okay, mainly winning several Oscars.

When Hong Kong films are in decline, they can still be exported.

Especially the Koreans, who once regarded Hong Kong films as the norm, filmed "New World". Later, there were "Tracking" and "Drug War", which were also taken over.

But the further it goes, the more it doesn't work, because the right to speak is completely gone.

............

In late winter and early spring, it is cold in the capital.

Early this morning, a naïve young man walked into the world film and television. Short, flat-headed, dark-skinned and rough, full of country temperament.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Sister Lin asked me to come. ”

"Wait a minute. ”

After a while, Lin Leyi appeared with a young man, with a slender and long face, unremarkable.

"Baoqiang is here? Let's get acquainted, this is also a newcomer who has just signed, Zhang Luyi. ”

"This is Wang Baoqiang. ”

The two said hello briefly, Zhang Luyi had already signed the contract and left on his own.

He was a student of the 99-level directing department of Chinese opera, but he didn't mix with the director and became an actor. The acting is not bad, Xuanzong in "The Legend of the Demon Cat" has a unique charm.

Another recommended TV series "Red", the heroine is little peach.

And Wang Baoqiang acted in "Blind Well" last year, and won the Silver Bear Award for Artistic Contribution at the just-concluded Berlin Film Festival, so he was called to the company.

Lin Leyi took him into his office and said, "I told you before?" You are also an adult, you can call the shots, today is ......"

"I'll sign!

Didn't wait for anyone to finish? Wang Baoqiang said vigorously: "Can you enter such a big company? Is it my pleasure? I listen to Sister Lin!"

"Oh, that's good. ”

Lin Leyi smiled: "Okay, someone will handle it for you later." What about me? Is the head of an artist agency? So every newcomer is received by me first.

But after signing the contract, you will be equipped with an exclusive broker. By the way, do you have a place to live in the capital?"

"Rented house. ”

"Then move to the dormitory, right? Are your traits obvious? Develop well in the future. ”

A few words of advice? Wang Baoqiang went through the formalities by himself? Waiting for the busy work? Lin Leyi looked for Mr. Xu.

"The profile of two newcomers. ”

"Huh? Put this. ”

Xu Fei flipped through it casually, and he already had a plan in his heart.

Zhang Lu is a low-key and powerful faction, but Wang Baoqiang has star potential.

There are always people who say that Wang Baoqiang is stupid, stupid, he is fine! And Ma Rong's sympathy again? Good popularity among passers-by.

Is the trait unique? He plays some roles to be tasteful.

Is this office simply furnished? On the left side of the desk is a bookshelf, and under the bookshelf is a cabinet, and inside the cabinet is a safe.

No second person has ever touched the safe? It's all Mr. Xu's hard work.

At this moment, he opened it, took out an outline of the script, and called in a veteran producer.

"Do you have a job now?"

"There are two TV series working on the script. ”

"I'll put it on for a while, and I'll give you a movie project. ”

Sizzle!

The producer wants to forcibly draw the wire!

Who doesn't know that the film business has always been personally controlled by Mr. Xu, which means that he wants to let go slowly?

Sure enough, I listened to the other party: "Comedy, starring Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, the budget should not exceed seven million." Don't worry, it'll be released next year. ”

The producer looks at the title, "People are in Embarrassment".

"What is the explanation for this embarrassment?" he wondered.

"Helpless, depressed, and embarrassed, you don't have to worry about these, I will stir up the 'embarrassment' on the Internet first. ”

The producer understood, like the FLASH of "Nobody".

Just for this little vinegar, I made this dumpling.

"Do you have a choice for the director?"

"You go to Nortel to find a guy named Ning Hao, it seems that he has filmed a few MVs. He is also very talented as a screenwriter, try to let him perfect the script. ”

"Okay!"

Seeing that there were no other instructions, the producer turned around and left, without asking a word more.

This is called metaphysics, Mr. Xu's metaphysics.

......

Mainland directors are divided into the sixth generation.

Since then, there has been no seventh or eighth generation, because there has not been a collective identity and collective achievement. Among young directors, Ning Hao is one of the few representatives.

This dude is almost self-taught.

He has worked in bicycle assembly, stall practice, stage art, photography, and journalists, and graduated from secondary school, studying adult education in the Art Department of Beijing Normal University.

Later, he was admitted to Nortel's photography major, which is the farthest major from film.

This should be busy with a movie "Incense", telling the story of a monk who turned around and then the temple was demolished.

After that came "Green Meadows", and "Green Meadows" came after "Crazy Stone". The script for Stone was written before "Incense", and it was originally called "Big Diamond".

The cost of filming was only 3 million, and he was 28 years old.

I have to say, that's talent.

............

“05、08、10、18、23、32。 ”

"Uh, then 11. ”

In the evening, at a lottery station, Xiao Mo threw the boss into the car and bought a two-color ball.

Mei Zizi came back, Xu Fei said: "You also believe in this thing?"

"Why don't you believe it? This is a new award, and it just went on sale a few days ago. The big prize, the small prize is many, the double area selection number, and there is a prize for a blue ball!"

"Gotta get it, get behind the wheel. ”

Xiao Mo started to step on the accelerator and stuffed the lottery ticket into his jacket pocket, as if stuffed into the dream of hundreds of millions of lottery players.

Since the 16th of this month (February), the two-color ball has been sold online nationwide, and the prize pool has accumulated 100 million in just a few months. Xu Fei also bought a section in his previous life, and won a maximum of five yuan.

Later, I didn't buy it.

The water here is very deep, and if you understand, you will naturally understand, and if you don't understand, you can't do anything.

- Zhihu boss

Xiao Mo sent him home and ran away with a smoke.

Teacher Xu went upstairs, and when he entered the door, a small soft ball pounced over, "Baba!"

"Did you make a fuss today?"

"No, no!"

Xu Yuling broke free of his embrace, ran into the bedroom, and ran back, carrying a small schoolbag: "I'm going to school!"

"It's good to go to school, Toad Palace. ”

He picked up his daughter and took a few swings and asked, "Is it all arranged?"

"Beijing Normal University Experimental Kindergarten, in the school yard, walk from Baihua Hutong Xinwai Street, three or four kilometers. Xiao Xu said.

"It's close, just after my birthday. Zhang Li said.

"Where's Xiaohu?

"Phew! Think about it with your brain!"

The two of them rolled their eyes and said, "Xiaohu will go to Donghua Gate, a little farther." ”

"Well, you have to do it anyway. ”

chatted about some trivial matters, Zhang Li cooked, Xiao Xu went online, and Teacher Xu watched TV and took the children by the way.

The news was playing on the TV:

"The impact of the epidemic is not great, and the off-season of Guangzhou's tourism market is not light. ”

The "2003 Luo Dayou Concert" originally scheduled for February 18 at Tianhe Stadium has not been postponed, and everything is planned as usual. ”

A buddy even swears: "There will be no large-scale epidemic of respiratory infections in the country in the near future......"
