Chapter 244: Recording the program
On July 20th, several new films by big directors were also released, and several new movies also occupied a lot of film schedules, and at the same time, the already small number of films in "Assembly Number", which was released for five days, was sharply reduced by 50% again.
Five days after its release, Feng Gang's latest masterpiece "Assembly Number" received a total of more than 15 million, which is a hit on the street for this medium-budget film, and now there are several movies that are not afraid of death have been released, which makes it even more difficult for "Assembly Number" to survive.
And today is also the day when the box office data for the first week of "Interstellar" is released.
Within three days of release, the global box office exceeded $400 million, and as the days passed, this number was also prohibitive for opponents.
However, there are always exceptions to everything, Feng Gang is still very rigid and released the new film "Assembly" on the 15th as usual, this behavior was rated by the media as a brave filmmaker, and netizens commented on it as a foolish behavior with a brain in water.
"Assembly" has invested nearly 100 million yuan, but since its release, the box office has been less than 200 million, which is a very miserable achievement, and it will be difficult to return to the original cost.
In the face of the ferocity of "Interstellar", one or two movies were originally released in mid-July, and their release dates were also postponed.
And Feng Gang doesn't think so, now that the situation in the mainland film market is applauding, and the market capacity is so large, he doesn't believe that his "Interstellar" family is dominant, he can't eat meat, and he can always drink some soup to pick up a leak, so he didn't agree to the company's request to postpone the release time of the movie.
Now, several more movies have been released, "Assembly" is difficult to move an inch, and in the face of "Interstellar", an epic masterpiece that rewrites the history of Chinese science fiction films, his film has become cannon fodder.
Many media also regret that "The Assembly" is also a well-made movie, but I came across the movie "Interstellar".
At half past ten in the morning of the 20th, Qin Feng sat in the office, watching the news, and after a while, Faye Wong brought over the box office statistics of the movie week.
At the same time, major websites have been swiped by "Interstellar" again, and netizens are also talking about it.
"In the first week of its release, "Interstellar" won a total of $712 million at the box office, with an average of $100 million a day!"
"Interstellar won 712 million US dollars in seven days! Qin Feng once again set a bunch of records!"
"Interstellar has locked in one of the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year in the world in 2017!"
"A well-deserved first director in China! A well-deserved master director of commercial films! Without suspense, Qin Feng has once again become the king of summer files!"
"Interstellar dominates the global film market throughout July!"
"Qin Feng! a ghost director who is either breaking records or on the way to breaking records!"
After the outbreak in the first week, in the face of a succession of new movie releases, although the schedule of "Interstellar" has declined, the attendance rate is still outstanding and popular.
This situation is also destined to continue to be popular for a period of time.
Up to now, there have been a lot of people who have watched the movie, and basically all kinds of interpretations about the movie can be said.
"Science man comprehensively interprets the three major problems of "Interstellar"!"
"The epic sci-fi blockbuster "Interstellar", what you don't know behind it!"
"Ten common senses that you must know when watching "Interstellar"!"
"The latest and most professional interpretation of Interstellar!
All kinds of news, all kinds of comments, but a carnival of fans and the media, "Interstellar" has also become a carnival of a group of niche science fiction writers, and some scholars, each of whom expresses what they think is the most awesome and unique opinions, some praise and some complain, and some criticize.
Many 'experts' want to become famous by stepping on Interstellar, but what they get is notorious, because Interstellar is produced by several famous physicists, and in terms of professional knowledge, it is supported by scientific theoretical research.
Today, "Interstellar" also took advantage of this hot momentum to hold a celebration banquet.
During the interview session of the celebration banquet, Qin Feng repeatedly answered the questions that he had said many times.
"Hello Director Qin, I am a reporter from Huaxia Science Magazine, as far as I know so far, there is no pathogen on the earth star now, which can cause the extinction of all plants on the earth star, and the apocalyptic situation in the movie is impossible for now. ”
A young man with glasses who was engaged in this work asked seriously.
Qin Feng replied with a smile: "From what is known so far, it is indeed impossible, but today, when the economy is so developed, in exchange for the deterioration of the environment, it has also caused more and more diseases carried by animals and plants.
If we don't pay attention to this problem, it may get worse in the future. ”
Then he answered some answers one after another, in fact, how can there be so many whys, this is what the plot needs to set up, these reporters are also full, but of course Qin Feng can't say this in person.
At this time, on the Internet, some netizens rated "Interstellar", some said that it was not epic, some said that it was god-level, and some said that it was hell-level.
Among them, a netizen commented: "If I want to assign a grade to "Interstellar", it is not ABCD, but a 'forced film', a very awesome film, a forced film!"
A group of netizens laughed, and since then the movie has added another level: 'forced film'.
There are also netizens who commented for the "forced film": "Forced film" refers to the description of a movie that is very awesome, very high, high above the sky, awesome cow, and out of the universe. Specifically refers to some epic films synonymously.
If you want to say where there are many talents, look for sand sculptures on the Internet. A group of sand sculpture netizens had a lot of fun, and netizens were also happy.
"Interstellar" is still rampant in the summer, and there is no movie that can pose a threat to him.
Although it has only been released for a week, all kinds of touting words have been flooded on the Internet, and there is a shortage of movie screenings, so the attendance rate has always been at the top of the list.
In the face of such a popular movie, the strange behavior of grabbing tickets in advance in order to watch a movie has also aroused the curiosity of a group of new audiences who do not know the truth and do not plan to enter the cinema, and they also walked into the cinema to watch "Interstellar" with curiosity.
Qin Feng has also made outstanding contributions to the development of the mainland market.
"Interstellar" is currently the best IMAX movie, and this top-notch picture can only be seen in some science and education documentaries on TV, which also adds a lot of points to "Interstellar".
Countless professional movie lovers are frantically touting the effect of the IMAX film version, which also makes it difficult to find tickets in IMAX theaters, and even scalped tickets have appeared.
For this movie, which is not too suitable for N brushing, the box office in the second week is still desperate for all the movies of the same period.
The weekly box office of the second week of "Interstellar" ranked first in the world, getting 780 million US dollars!
This data also makes all film companies feel very trance, if "Interstellar" is the same as a normal movie, only 90 minutes, at least half more shows, then the box office is even more unbelievable!
Such an ungodly achievement has also made all the media report like chicken blood, and one article after another with touting has drifted to all corners of the Internet like snowflakes.
The big and small stars on Weibo rubbed the popularity of "Interstellar" everywhere, and posted praises for how moved they were, Qin Feng was awesome and so on.
Qin Feng was no stranger when he saw this situation, anyway, he could invisibly expand the publicity of the movie.
However, with the release of several Hollywood movies one after another, it has also had a certain impact on the box office of the movie.
In the next two weeks, it received a total of 648 million US dollars, and the cumulative total box office was as high as 2.14 billion US dollars, which did not lock in the 2017 global box office champion in advance, and successfully broke the box office record in world film history.
Qin Feng and "Interstellar" have also become the hottest topics in entertainment news at the moment.
Chen Daoming is also a god with this film, if there was a level with him before, then after the release of "Interstellar", he has become the first Asian actor, not only won numerous awards, but now the box office of the starring movie "Interstellar" alone has discouraged countless people.
Zhang Zifeng is also red and purple, and she has cooperated with Qin Feng in several movies one after another, which has also made her the top actor among Chinese actresses in terms of business and fame.
Other actors who participated in the film also frequently appeared on the hot search, and when the total box office data of "Interstellar" was announced, the media's praise for this movie also reached a climax.
In the film and television industry, often a popular masterpiece can make an actor eat for a lifetime, so Chen Daoming and Wang Zhiwen have now reached the peak of their acting careers, both of them have won numerous awards before, and the difference is the box office, and now a "Interstellar" allows them to do without receiving films for the rest of their lives.
The first wave of the summer season in July has ended, and the rotation of four or five blockbusters in August has brought the second wave of climax.
However, the next climax is estimated to not reach the popularity of "Interstellar", after all, for a phenomenal epic sci-fi movie like "Interstellar", even Hollywood is not a common occurrence.
For the audience, blockbusters are available all day long, and epic blockbusters are not often available.
On August 15th, Qin Feng took the crew to the Huaxia Central Film Channel to participate in the program recording.
"This year's summer feels hotter than usual, and there is a fiery epic movie in July, which has driven the national and even global film market to continue to heat up since its release, and this fiery atmosphere has been felt by audiences all over the world......
After the host Wang Rong's opening remarks, he smiled at the audience and asked, "Do you know which movie this hot movie is?"
"Interstellar!" shouted the audience in unison.
"Then I want to ask, have you all seen this movie?" Wang Rong then asked.
"I've seen it!" the audience responded in unison again.
Wang Rong said: "I have also watched this movie and watched it three times, but I dare to feel that there are still many things I don't understand, and there are a lot of questions in my heart.
So now we have invited the director and creator of "Interstellar" and the main creator of the movie, ask them to answer our questions, and let us applaud Director Qin Feng........."
"Papapa......" The scene applauded thunderously.
Accompanied by exciting background music, Qin Feng walked out of the backstage with the main creators, waving to the audience with a smile.
"Kaede Shao!"
"Kaede Shao!
"Chen Daoming!!"
"Zhang Zifeng!!"
"Wang Zhiwen!!"
......
The audience shouted and screamed wildly.
After greeting the audience, they took their separate seats.
"Hello Director Qin, welcome to our show, we have been looking forward to it for a long time. Wang Rong said to Qin Feng with a smile.
Qin Feng replied: "Actually, I've been waiting for you to invite me to come, our station is called the Movie Channel, if a movie is not on the Movie Channel, wouldn't it be a failure, but fortunately, it's finally here today." ”
After a few people talked nonsense for a while, they went straight to the point.
"Director Qin, the background of the movie "Interstellar" is in the last days, how did you come up with this background?" Wang Rong asked.
Qin Feng responded without thinking: "Actually, the inspiration came from a sandstorm, because I live in Beijing, Beijing is also threatened by sandstorms, and then I found that the desertification in Ningxia is quite serious, although our economic development has gone up, but the environment has deteriorated somewhat, so I also want to call on everyone to protect the environment."
The apocalyptic scenes in the movie are not all fantasy, and now our country is not only in the north, but also in the west.
And looking at the whole planet, the problem of desertification is already a very serious problem that affects the ecological environment, if it is not prevented, there will be no arable land in the end, and a variety of diseases will be produced, then it will not be far from the end of the world.
Therefore, it is also recommended that everyone plant more trees, prohibit indiscriminate logging, and take care of nature!"
Qin Feng also used this to promote a wave of positive energy.
Then Wang Rong looked at Chen Daoming again: "Hello Mr. Chen Daoming, this is the first time you have cooperated with director Qin Feng, and it is also the first time you have starred in a science fiction film, how does it feel different from your previous performances?"
Chen Daoming thought for a while and responded: "In fact, in terms of performance, the performance of science fiction movies is still very difficult, and it is a great test for the actors, because you have to face the air, and your performance can't have the slightest feeling of letting the audience watch the play, so it is also a big challenge for me."
Then I am also very grateful to Director Qin for his trust, although this is our first time working together, it has benefited me a lot personally.
In the movie, I play a father, in the face of big love and small love, what kind of state should children of different ages have, etc.......
Chen Daoming talked about the perception of the movie and the challenges and some difficulties of the role.
Then, Zhang Zifeng and other actors shared some difficulties and interesting facts about the characters and the movie in turn.
Later, Qin Feng also revealed how many special effects scenes in the movie were made.
"Science fiction films, as the name suggests, are the fantasy visualization of science, and in order for the audience to accept and understand this fantasy, it is necessary to achieve a sense of reality and make the audience feel immersive.
Therefore, many of the shots were shot in real life, and what could not be shot in reality was produced by a combination of physical and digital special effects, so in the end, the picture effect we presented will make the audience feel very real. Qin Feng said.
Then the audience asked: "Director Qin, what do you think is the most touching thing about this movie?"
Faced with the question of sending points, Qin Feng replied directly without thinking: "Feelings! Family, love, friendship, etc. are the most touching people, and they are also the core values of this movie! Love can travel through time and space, and the power of love is infinite!"
.........
The show was recorded for nearly three hours, and finally, near the end, Wang Rong asked Qin Feng about his plans for the next movie, and Qin Feng responded that the script for the next movie had been written, but it would not start filming for the time being, and he was currently planning to take a break.
After hearing it, many viewers were also a little disappointed, and it would be a long time before they could see Director Qin's movie.
