Chapter 225: New Film Plan
July 2 at 10 a.m.
The box office of "The Grim Reaper" was soon announced under third-party statistics.
The most eye-catching is "The Grim Reaper is Coming", but the box office list that surprised everyone was not "The Grim Reaper", and now if you ask a casual person, you don't know "The Grim Reaper".
Since there is no so-called protection month, the summer file is also a schedule for foreign blockbusters to rush to land, and the first day of the box office list was won by the Hollywood blockbuster "S Men" with 180 million.
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" is currently in second place with a box office of 100 million, and the box office of horror films has not been very good in China, so it is a miracle that "The Grim Reaper is Coming" can have such a result.
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" is mainly facing the North American market, and the data from North America also came back in the afternoon, and the North American first-day box office list "The Grim Reaper is Coming" topped the list with $60 million.
For North American audiences to come to superhero movies, they have long watched it I don't know how many times, and occasionally change their tastes, and "Death is Coming" seems to be tailor-made for them, they can't extricate themselves after watching it, and the box office has been rising, and "S Men", which won the top box office in China, only ranks ninth in North America, which shows that North American audiences are very picky.
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" was released second, and major airlines found that there was a large-scale wave of refunds at major airports across the country, and the biggest impact was Beijing International Airlines.
"What's going on?" the major airlines also quickly launched an investigation and quickly found out the reason.
The culprit is actually a movie, "The Grim Reaper is Coming", after learning the reason, the major airlines are also confused, crying and laughing.
On the official website of Beijing International Airlines, someone left a message after refunding the ticket: "I had a very poor sense of security on the plane, but after watching "The Grim Reaper", it is even more serious, don't sit on the plane, and sit cautiously!"
After this incident was spread on the Internet, after being seen by the jokers, they made up jokes one after another, and it became a hot topic for a while.
In the next few years, there were no other dark horses in the film market, and it became a confrontation between the two overlords "The Grim Reaper" and "S Men".
In terms of ratings, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" has stood firm with a high score of 9.1 and has not fallen into the eighth division, and the ratings of several movies in a row are above nine points, Qin Feng's movies are not only the guarantee of the box office, but also the guarantee of quality!
.........
On July 8th, at half past ten in the morning, in Qin Feng's office, Qin Feng was sitting on a chair waiting for the box office data of the first week of the movie.
After a while, the staff brought the statistical results to Qin Feng to see, and after reading it, Qin Feng also relaxed, and the box office stabilized.
There were no accidents at the box office in the first week in the mainland, led by "The Grim Reaper" and "S Men".
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" was released for seven years, with a total of 760 million mainland box office revenues, and the global box office of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" totaled 2.056 billion Chinese yuan in the first week!
After the official Weibo of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" announced the box office, netizens were shocked to numbness, this money is too easy to make, two billion a week, Qin Feng is robbing a bank, right?
However, in the second week, due to the release of two new films, and "The Grim Reaper" is not a popular film genre, the box office also declined.
In the second week, the box office of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" was only 460 million, ranking in the third neighborhood, but the overseas box office was still strong, and the overseas box office continued to break 100 million in the second week, and the global box office of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" in the second week was 1.648 billion yuan.
At this time, more than half of the movie was released, and Qin Feng was no longer in China at this time, but came to the United States, accompanied by several leading actors and staff.
Warner, who is very confident in "The Grim Reaper", has already carried out large-scale publicity, and has been inviting Qin Feng to come to the United States to promote it before, but Qin Feng has no time, so it has been delayed until now.
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" exploded again at the North American box office, which also made many Hollywood characters excited, I didn't expect Chinese movies to be so good-looking? At the same time, the name Qin Feng has completely made some of Hollywood's top characters remember this time.
And the Hollywood media also reported: "The scene of Chinese movies in North America is very hot!!"
""The Grim Reaper Comes" topped the North American box office charts for two consecutive weeks!!"
""The Grim Reaper is Coming" has become another Chinese film !! that has successfully conquered the North American film market on a large scale and on a large scale"
North American filmmakers and media, from ignoring them at the beginning, to being shocked, to being shocked, the box office champion for two consecutive weeks is actually a Chinese movie? Is the world too crazy, or am I not awake yet?
"The Grim Reaper is Coming" has become popular in North America to the extent that it is difficult to find a ticket, and it is not easy for a Chinese movie, which also makes Warner OnePlus continue to improve the screening theaters of "The Grim Reaper".
On July 17, Qin Feng and his entourage reached the rice country, and after promoting the movie on one of the most popular variety shows in the country, the others did not stay long before returning to China.
And Qin Feng still has to stay for some time to talk about cooperation with Warner, and at the same time, Qin Feng also wants to enter Hollywood, after all, no matter in the past or present life, the United States is a great existence, and it is a place that all filmmakers yearn for, and Qin Feng is no exception.
............
When Qin Feng returned to China, it was already August 2nd, and during this time in the United States, Qin Feng also learned about the film history of the United States, and also reached some cooperation.
And "The Grim Reaper", which was released for a month, has also been released, without lengthening the screening, and finally the domestic box office has won a total of 1.61 billion, and the foreign box office has accumulated as high as 3.67 billion, and the final global box office is about 740 million US dollars, temporarily ranking eighth in the global box office list in 2015, which is very good for a horror thriller.
"Death is Coming" was also broadcast on the national news network, and Qin Feng is now named the No. 1 commercial director in Asia.
Qin Feng is now the hottest and most popular director, there is no one, almost all the star actors are asked which director they want to cooperate with the most, and almost all of them answer Qin Feng, so Qin Feng's influence now can be described as very large.
And after Qin Feng returned to China, he also began to work on what to shoot in the next movie.
......
In mid-August, the official website of Yanhuang Film and Television also officially announced Qin Feng's new film plan, and the entire entertainment industry was boiling in an instant, Qin Feng is now a hot director, not only with high output, but also with guaranteed quality, so who doesn't want to participate in his movies.
However, it was only officially announced that his film will start shooting at the end of the year, and as for the amount of investment and the type of movie, it has not been announced.
In fact, Qin Feng hasn't thought about what the movie is going to shoot yet, but Qin Feng wants to create a Chinese version of the "Marvel Universe", but it hasn't started so soon, so this time it is a science fiction film that invests 100 million US dollars to test the waters.
This movie will be the touchstone for Qin Feng to start going international, but the investment is so large, and the preliminary work is also very long.
On September 20th, Qin Feng completed the script writing of "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", Qin Feng did not make any unnecessary changes, except for some details changed slightly, basically according to the classic version of the previous life.
Qin Feng now also has a royal team, so there is no need to temporarily form a crew, so now that the script is written, the actors can start filming as soon as they are in place.
The first thing Qin Feng thought of was this world, Zhou Xingxing, who was known as the king of comedy, so the first thing Qin Feng did was to ask the staff to send him an invitation.
Zhou Xingxing is now the king of comedy in Huaxia, and he is also a well-known director and the owner of a company, so Qin Feng has no bottom in his heart, and he doesn't know if he can successfully invite him to star, Qin Feng underestimated his appeal and influence in the Chinese film industry at this time.
.........
In Xiangjiang, an office building, Zhou Xingxing's secretary, as in the past, opened the boss's mailbox and saw a very sensitive word, "Yanhuang Film and Television Invitation!", during this time, the news about Yanhuang Film and Television was full of flying.
"Invitation? Could it be an invitation to "The Grim Reaper 2"? But the boss doesn't seem to be very good at it?" "Mainly recently, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" has become popular, so the secretary's first thought is a sequel to this movie.
With a question mark in his head, he quickly clicked on the email, which read: "Hello, Mr. Zhou Xingxing." I am Qin Feng, the director of Yanhuang Film and Television. I would like to invite you to participate in a costume nonsensical funny movie ......"
"Qin Feng, I didn't expect it to be an email sent by Qin Feng personally, I have to tell the boss quickly!" The secretary was also a little shocked, and then after printing out the content of the email, he walked quickly to Zhou Xingxing's office.
.........
Second, after Zhou Xingxing finished handling some of the company's affairs in the morning, he got on a plane and went to Beijing.
Yesterday, I read the email sent by Qin Feng that the secretary showed him, and after reading it, I felt an impulse in my heart to act, and he faintly felt in his heart that this movie seemed to be tailor-made for him.
Although Zhou Xingxing started a company and became the boss, his performance cannot be compared with Yanhuang Film and Television, which has not been established for a long time, and the current business scope of Yanhuang Film and Television is no longer comparable to that when it was established.
So although Zhou Xingxing has worn the crown of the king of comedy very steadily, people are always satisfied, and he wants to go further, so he aims at Hollywood.
And if he can achieve this goal, looking at the whole of China, only Yanhuang Film and Television, only Qin Feng has this ability!
Zhou Xingxing had long wanted to get acquainted with Qin Feng before, but he never found any opportunity, so after receiving Qin Feng's email, he took the initiative to come to Beijing and talk to Qin Feng.
Soon after arriving in Beijing, the two met in a clubhouse.
After the two exchanged politeness, Zhou Xingxing's first sentence was: "I am very optimistic about this movie, and I also hope to participate in this movie, but I want to get a promise from you." ”
Qin Feng looked confused, stunned for a moment and asked, "What promise?"
"I've always wanted to enter the North American market, but I haven't been able to find a way, I think you should have a way, so I need a commitment from you. With a strong desire in his eyes, Zhou Xingxing said to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng thought for a while and said: "To be honest, I will have a lot of blockbuster plans starting next year, specially prepared to go international, and I will definitely invite Chinese actors to play at that time, and now, I have begun to slowly look for candidates for these movie roles." ”
Qin Feng took a sip of tea and continued: "However, there is no movie suitable for nonsensical actors in my plan, so my next movie is not suitable for your role, so you have to make a promise, I can't give it to you now, I will definitely cooperate if I have the opportunity." ”
In the end, after the two sides talked for a while, they still couldn't reach an agreement, because Zhou Xingxing also made other requests, and Qin Feng is also a person with a strong desire to control, so he is one in his movies, and it is okay to put forward opinions, but the second person is never allowed to interfere.
Although no agreement was reached, the two still got together and dispersed, and Zhou Xingxing left amicably.
In fact, looking for Zhou Xingxing is also a little obsession in Qin Feng's heart, after all, the performance of Xing Ye in his previous life was too outstanding, so he still wanted to find someone like him to play this classic role.
"Zhou Xingxing didn't recruit him, so who are you going to find to play it?" Qin Feng thought for a while, and suddenly thought of an actor.
"Okay!
Qin Feng thought about it, and finally decided that the male lead in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" would be played by Chen He.
At this time, Chen He was still a student, but he was a funny blogger, and he often posted some funny videos, and the reason why he chose him was because he felt a little similar to Chen He, and at the same time, he was not too oily now, and he couldn't think of anyone else who was suitable for this role.
............
Chen He studied in Beiying, and he would go for a morning run every time he was idle, and every time he passed by the Yanhuang Film and Television Building, he just wanted to meet Qin Feng and brush his face, but he never met him.
Everyone shouted in the mirror in the dormitory: "Work hard, struggle, you are a handsome guy, you will definitely succeed!"
As a fan of Zhou Xingxing, knowing Zhou Xingxing's experience, he always firmly believes that as long as he works hard, he will definitely succeed.
Every time he ran past the Yanhuang Film and Television Building, he saw that people were coming in and out one after another, some were recruited, and some were eliminated, he dreamed that one could also join Yanhuang Film and Television, and now which young man does not dream of joining Yanhuang Film and Television, and then starred in Qin Feng's movie, and then became an instant hit!
However, dreams are always beautiful, but the reality is a little skinny, but Chen He has always insisted that there is no difference between people without dreams and salted fish, and he is working hard to dream.
On September 23rd, Chen He couldn't believe it, the pie really fell down, and his dream was really coming true.
