Chapter 186: The Foursome Reunion (1/5)
The movie "Racing" has nothing to do with Lu Xiaoran, he is neither the starring actor nor the investment.
But this is Ning Hao's movie.
All of China knows that Lu Xiaoran has a good relationship with Ning Hao...
Therefore, for the Beijing premiere, it is appropriate to help the platform.
There is another important reason: 'Orange' bought another 50,000 movie tickets for "Racing", and of course Lu Xiaoran hopes that this order can be sold - although he knows that being an online platform is throwing money, he is still distressed!
The premiere ceremony was held at the Convention and Exhibition Center in Beijing.
A lot of reporters came, after all, "Crazy Racing" set a precedent for domestic low-budget comedies to be a big hit.
In the past, only big productions and Feng's comedies could sell at the box office, but Ning Hao's appearance told everyone that as long as the movie tells a good story, it can also be a big hit!
Let's just say that in the past, the normal treatment enjoyed by a domestic blockbuster usually started from the implicit criticism of film critics, then the angry scolding of countless audiences and online names, and finally the official statistics of the box office, and found that it was 100 million yuan again.
So, well, do it again next year.
The rule is: hype first, you must use the best director, big investment, and the goal is directly to the Oscars.
What kind of screenwriters, martial arts, and beauty fingers, all of them must be the most exposed.
Actors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places came, everyone was lively together, co-produced films, and performed the trick of "I have always admired Teacher So-and-so" to each other when there was nothing to do.
Then send it to a foreign country for an award, regardless of whether there is a drama or not, the poster has to be hung in Italy or France first, and 200,000 yuan will be hung once.
There will be a ceremony when it is officially launched, and everyone who can perform and sing will come, and it is best to invite all the first-line stars, and the main creative staff will be lined up, with four words written on their faces "restrained and proud".
Then as soon as the film was released, everyone scolded enthusiastically once, and by the way, contributed to the box office.
You say that such a movie is not good?
Usually blockbusters can't be seen except for excitement!
And then, there is still a group of people clamoring to support domestic films, what do they say?
A director once said: I'd rather watch a less good domestic film than a well-made foreign film.
What's the matter, did foreign movies provoke you?
You just close yourself off and don't let foreign films enter China!
Since the market is open, the audience should be given the right to choose!
The development of Chinese films depends on the joint efforts of filmmakers and the general environment, rather than cutting off their legs.
To put it mildly, you are impotent, I have no obligation to keep chastity.
You didn't shoot well, I can't stop watching it?
……
"Here we go!"
Seeing Lu Xiaoran walk in, Ning Hao was quite happy.
"Nonsense, you call me, can I not come... By the way, is Brother Zheng here?"
Ning Hao shook his head: "He hasn't arrived yet, how... It's all your fault, I have to let him direct "People Are in Embarrassment", so that he has no intention of participating in the publicity now..."
"He said that he wanted to challenge himself to direct and act, what does it have to do with me?"
“… How much box office do you estimate your "People in Embarrassment" will have?"
Lu Xiaoran thought for a while, and then said, "I estimate that 80 million is not a problem!"
"So tall?"
"The market is good right now, especially the comedy market!"
That's right, how good is the market, let's put it this way, in two months, the number of screens has increased from 4,000 to 4,300...
This increase is almost catching up with the house price!
There are too many rich people who are optimistic about the film market!
Shangfeng supported the construction of the cinema chain and issued a bunch of cinema business licenses, in a word, the Chinese film market at this time is called 'the vast world, there is a lot to do'!
But where the basic skills are sufficient, with today's market capacity, the box office will exceed 100 million.
Lu Xiaoran's 80 million is still less predicted.
The two were chatting, Huang Bo walked over, saw Lu Xiaoran, and quipped: "Our 200 million director is here!"
"Ah, 200 million?"
“… Isn't that 200 million if you add one piece?"
"How else can it be counted?"
"Anyway, I see that's what the media call you. ”
“… Come on, how many words said by the media are true? The year before last, Ning Hao was called a ghost director, and last year he called me a ghost director, can the word ghost be mass-produced?"
"Haha..."
The three of them smiled, and Ning Hao asked, "Do you have a schedule in a while?"
"You're not going to make a new film, are you?
"What's wrong?"
"I have five drama appointments in my hand, after filming this TV series, I have to shoot "The Wind", it's over, I will shoot my own movie "Time and Space Traveler", there will be a "Big Man" in the second half of the year, and at the beginning of next year, I will shoot "Scorching Sun"..."
Huang Bo was stunned: "... You're so busy, and it's all scheduled for next year?"
"No way, if the company wants to make money, I have to take the lead!"
"Can you keep it busy, then?"
“… Let's hold on like this first, we have to do it if we can't be busy!"
"Then "No Man's Land", you don't have time. "Ning Hao is a little regretful...
"No Man's Land?
Huang Boyan was concise: "It's a drama about burning, killing and looting, and the script is well written!"
“… When will it be filmed?"
"When "Racing" is released, I will go to film, and now that I have signed a pony, I have to show some results. ”
"That's March?"
"This time it may take a little longer to prepare, and I guess it will take June!"
"Okay, I'll go play when the time comes!"
"A must!"
"None of us can be left behind!"
After chatting for half an hour, Xu Zheng finally came - Lu Xiaoran almost didn't recognize it.
He lost at least 40 pounds!
Although he is still bald, Qingjun's appearance is really a bit like King Xie - the last picture, thank you!
"You... What's wrong with you?"
Xu Zheng shook his head: "It's too difficult to do the late stage, and in "No Man's Land", Ning Hao asked me to lose weight, so I'll just keep losing weight!"
Huang Bo was surprised for a long time, and couldn't help asking, "You are too powerful... How?"
"Just eat less and exercise more by the way..."
"To put it lightly, do you know how many heroes who want to lose weight have been blocked by these two sentences?"
……
At 7 o'clock, the movie officially started.
The story of Racing is simple, it starts with racing and ends with racing.
All the bizarre and absurd coincidences in the middle contribute to the beginning of the protagonist Geng Hao's tragedy and the end of the comedy.
Geng Hao's tragedy reached the extreme at the beginning - he lost the game, died his master, lost his car, became a murderer, an outlaw with nothing.
In the end, Geng Hao won the championship and was acquitted, and those who hurt him did not end well, and he could bury his master in a grand manner, and there were unburned dollars, and his life could start again.
Of course, humorous lines are indispensable:
"Brother-in-law, will you kill yourself if you do more injustice?" "Your mouth is full of smoothness, you want to go to graduate school!"
"The local gang is too rude!"
"Sorry sir, I already said that he is not in the room, our hotel is very international, we want to protect the Secret of our guests, so we can't provide you with more rooms!"
Of course, the most hilarious part is the part where you taste the ashes...
That is, when Lu Xiaoran appeared on the scene, the taxi driver he played, saw someone in the back seat open the urn and taste the ashes, he was stunned, and then burst into laughter and smashed the steering wheel desperately...
The audience laughed like a fool...
In the end, the subtitles appeared, and the audience actually stood up and applauded automatically...
The host of the premiere simply let Lu Xiaoran serve as the host, and he walked from the backstage to the front desk: "I am Lu Xiaoran, the host of the premiere of "Racing"!"
He just came on the stage, and a group of people in the audience applauded...
simply didn't follow the routine: "Do you think this movie is good?"
"Good!"
"Then let's invite the creators up, okay?"
"Good!"
Immediately, Ning Hao, Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, Wang Xun, Wang Shuangbao, Cao Binkun and the Taiwanese comedy gang in the movie made a collective appearance...
