Chapter 183: Less Talk and More Action (2/5)
(I'm losing my hair...) I've really tried my best to think about the plot.,I resolutely don't recognize the name of the first water from the starting point!)
People with flamboyant personalities often don't end up very well!
We believe in the golden mean.
Lu Yu looks back on his interview career, and his favorite people are Li An and Pu Shu.
Because these two are both talented and vulnerable.
Very mild and not a threat to anyone.
He doesn't talk much, and he often smirks, so he is very loved by everyone.
People prefer the kind of people who are excellent and have one or two small "shortcomings".
It's too perfect, and sometimes it's not so pleasing.
Of course, people like Lu Xiaoran who scold people from time to time are not popular...
Just like this 'China Normal University Incident', many people speculate whether he is jealous of '"I Am Not Pan Jinlian" won the award'...
The last time Lu Xiaoran won an award was five years ago...
We like Li An, even if his works are not blockbusters, we still appreciate him, because he has a heartfelt humility from beginning to end!
At the last "Billy Lynn Halftime Battle" press conference, it may be that the back of the chair is uncomfortable, after sitting down, Li An asked the staff for a cushion for the backrest, and his first reaction after waiting for someone to take it was not to thank you, but to say sorry repeatedly...
Lu Xiaoran was a little touched at the time: If it was him, he might say thank you, but not sorry...
Because Li An felt that because of his own reasons, people had to take a mat...
So, he said sorry!
Talent, sensitivity, humility, and softness of heart are all things that time cannot destroy.
A humble son, gentle as jade.
Lu Xiaoran felt that he was developing a little in the direction of the sixth master - he seemed to abide by the rules, but in fact, he wanted others to abide by his rules...
Generally, such people are not highly favored by the people!
Let's talk less and do more!
But a few more of these things are not something he can decide, for example, the new variety show "Longing for Life" created by Tang Xiao Culture, he has to go to one issue, "I Am an Actor Season 2" has begun, and the guests invited in the first phase are Wen Ziren and Lu Xiaoran...
……
"I Am an Actor Season 2", the cheers are high...
When the first season was broadcast last year, Xiao Xianrou had not yet been ridiculed by the group, but it also won a lot of attention with its excellent production.
This year, the problem of small fresh meat has spread from inside the circle to outside the circle...
TV drama circle: IP costume fantasy drama word-of-mouth, ratings double hit the street!
From the IP battle of film and television dramas at the beginning of the year, to the sluggish ratings of fantasy dramas in the summer, to a condemnation of the professional ethics of young actors at the end of the year...
Abuse of stand-ins, digital misses, human skin inverted molds...
For a while, everyone was criticizing Xiao Xianrou...
The promotional slogan of "I Am an Actor Season 2" became: "Being an actor is a respectable profession, but being an actor must first have artistic virtue!"
Keep up with current events...
The effect is very good, this time not only the webcast, Beijing Satellite TV bought the right to live TV...
The second season not only recovered the production cost, but also made a lot of money - it was actually a loss last year, after all, the cast lineup is too high-end!
The first episode will be broadcast on November 4th, which happens to be the weekend after the release of "The Great Wall" and the first day of "Doctor Strange"...
By the way, about "Doctor Strange", Orange has prepared a bunch of marketing materials, and the most important point is - discrimination against Asians!
This thing wasn't invented by Orange, it's Hollywood's unanimous theory: because the Ancient One Mage was originally an Asian male, and now it's bleached...
Of course, according to the screenwriter's theory, it is out of consideration for the Chinese market, because the original Guyi Master is a Tibetan'...
If you really think about the Chinese market, why don't you find a Chinese actor for Mao?
And also...
Forget it, let's not talk about it, anyway, the Hollywood gang still insists on some ridiculous theories!
In the original time and space, this point was not hyped up, but the actors of various ancient mages, Tilda Swinton...
What 'true artist', 'incomparable beauty', 'this Englishwoman lived to be a queen'...
It's clear, and I found a marketing account to promote!
Therefore, Warner also concocted the pre-screening publicity of "Thunder Sand Sculpture" in the same way, blowing "Thunder Sand Sculpture" in the sky and underground...
Then, it was released, with 206 million in the first weekend and a total box office of 294 million, which was pressed to the ground by "Anti-Corruption Storm 4" and "The Tuner", and the word-of-mouth also hit a new low for DC movies...
Back to "The Great Wall": The North American box office of "The Great Wall" reported 20.6 million in three days the next weekend, and it was released for ten days, with a cumulative box office of more than 100 million...
Successfully achieved two consecutive box office titles, and the newly released "Dante's Code" has a sparse North American reputation and box office...
As for "Detective Jack 2: Never Look Back", which is regarded by many as the biggest opponent of "The Great Wall", it has the same experience as "Dante's Code"...
After the opening of the Chinese market, it boosted the global box office, and within ten days of release, the box office has exceeded 400 million US dollars, and it has successfully ranked 15th in the global box office of the year - squeezing out "Warcraft"...
According to the forecast, the total box office of "The Great Wall" should reach $6-650 million worldwide, and eventually exceed the global level of $550 million for "The Mermaid"...
The performance of the mainland box office is not very good - the weekday plummeted by 50%, plus the impact of "Doctor Strange", "Billy Lynn's Halftime Battle", and "Embroidered Spring Knife 2"...
The final total box office forecast is 1.2-1.5 billion...
Ignoring the impact of the schedule cold stock on the movie!
There is also the natural box office ceiling of Hollywood imported films - generally speaking, Hollywood imported films, except for the kind of word-of-mouth that are against the sky, most of the first weekend box office multiplied by 2 is the final result!
But making money is certain - the second part is already on the process...
The reason why Wen Ziren was on the show was for follow-up publicity.
……
Backstage of "I Am an Actor", Wen Ziren was a little nervous: "Lu, what am I going to say?"
"Just say whatever you want, just be impartial!"
"What does it mean to be impartial?"
“… Later, they will ask you to evaluate the professional ethics of American actors, so you can be honest, don't blindly boast..."
"American actor work ethic?"
Wen Ziren rolled his eyes...
It's not that some old American actors have professional ethics, Johnny Depp is a typical example, Johnny Depp, in order not to memorize lines, people spend 100,000 dollars every year to hire a "Bluetooth headset teleprompter"...
And alcoholism...
There are too many rumors!
"By the way, I might want to ask a director's morality-related question later, and you show up to say it..."
Wen Ziren paused for a moment: "Director morality?"
"Is it humane to inflict real pain and torture on the actors during filming just to make the actors perform realistically?"
"That's certainly inhumane, my movie actors have a lot of children, and if I torture them, I can't continue to work!"
Wen Ziren's "Latent" and "The Conjuring" have a lot of child actors, do you really let the actors dressed as evil ghosts scare the children?
If that's for the sake of realism... For the sake of art, it seems like it's okay...
But if you really want to do this, then Wen Ziren's reputation will already stink on the street...
Also director?
"Yes, you just tell the truth, if you say something inappropriate, it will be edited later!"
