Chapter 22: I Am a Professional Actor (Part I) (2/6)

At the beginning, the Hollywood crew came to China to promote, and they would definitely go to Xiaoxitian to meet the third master...

Later, they began to visit Zhou Xingchi, but Stephen Chow has no good impression of people in Hollywood, if Hollywood people ask him to promote, generally Zhou Xingchi will not pay attention, but some stars often deliberately use his name to create topics. For example, Michael Fassbinder came to China to promote the new film "Assassin's Creed", and at the press conference, Magneto said that he liked Zhou Xingchi's film very much.

Then the domestic media hyped up, and the goal of promoting the film was achieved!

Last year, Lu Xiaoran's "The Martian" once again broke the mainland box office record...

And it is unprecedented to get a box office of 4.42 billion!

In the final analysis, China's box office market is large enough, so many Hollywood studios also attach great importance to China's box office, and do everything possible to obtain the qualification to come to China for release.

Since we are here to promote the film in China, why don't we directly find the most influential Lu Xiaoran to do a promotion?

Drink tea, take a photo, post a video, and the effect of publicity will be there!

If Lu Xiaoran is free, he will be quite happy to cooperate with the performance...

He kind of likes Dwayne Johnson's...

"I don't have time to see them, I'm filming!"

β€œ... Then I'll refuse!"

"When will Furious 8 be released?"

"April 14, the world release!"

β€œ... Okay, I see. ”

Hung up the phone, Lu Xiaoran watched the box office of "I Can Say", as of April 12, it was released for 13 days, with a cumulative box office of 1.28 billion...

If there is no impact of "Furious 8", at least 1.5 billion can be obtained.

As soon as "Furious 8" is released, it is estimated that it will stop at 1.35 billion...

In fact, as he thought, after the opening of "Furious Eight", the box office at midnight received 55 million, easily breaking the two-year record of "Furious 7"...

This is a real blockbuster, and it is widely predicted that "Furious 8" is expected to reach $400 million at the box office in its first weekend after it opens in the global market!

$400 million in the opening weekend...

Nima, the box office results of the first weekend alone are enough to make 99% of domestic movies ashamed!

Of course, the production cost is $250 million.

Intuitively, converted to RMB: 1.72 billion RMB!

This cost actually exceeds the cost of all domestic films...

......

"Let me introduce you, it's... Sun Dasheng, the most capable criminal policeman in my hands!"

"Hello Officer Sun..."

Lu Xiaoran stretched out his hand, and the two shook it...

Sun Dasheng, played by Wu Jing, had just dealt with a case, and his hand was bitten and bleeding, and it was on Lu Xiaoran's hand, he took a look, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly...

Then sit down without moving.

Continue to talk about the case: "That's the case, our company has produced an anti-cancer drug, called Glenin, which has been prevented by an Indian fake drug factory, and recently this fake drug actually appeared in Shanghai, and it has begun to spread, the head office attaches great importance to this matter, so arrange for me to come over and ask for your help!"

Over there, Wu Jing began to look through the case materials, and Lu Xiaoran took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his hands...

This detail has actually proven what kind of person this is: selfishness!

When you shake hands with someone and your hands are stained with blood, most people will ask what happened to your hands, but he didn't ask, but directly told the case, and then wiped it clean with a handkerchief.

It shows that he doesn't care about other people's injuries and only values his own interests...

Refined egoist!

This movie is full of details!

He was convinced that he was innocent...

So, he would talk a lot about Glenin on TV...

"A lot of people say that the price we set is too expensive to eat, and they say that the cost price is only five cents, so why buy five hundred dollars... That's the price of the second pill, and the first pill cost five billion dollars, and probably more!"

"Of course I know that life is priceless, but the crystallization of human technology has a price. ”

"In other words, if there is no huge potential for commercial value, and without the lure of huge profits, will there be so many teams of experts who spend huge sums of money and manpower on efficient development out of complete humanitarianism?"

"Our company has invested more than $80 billion in research and development for more than ten years, and in the end there are only 21 kinds that can ensure the success of research and development, and only a few models such as Grenin can be sold. ”

"Genuine drugs save people, generic drugs will only harm people!"

......

After the release of "Super 8", it was 410 million on the first day, 490 million on the next day, 390 million on Sunday, plus the midnight show, and the box office reached 1.35 billion on the first weekend!

Shocking!

Under its suppression, the income of "Can I Say" in the third weekend was only 109 million, and the single-day box office quickly fell to about 12 million...

The MarchΓ© du Film is truly a winner-takes-all!

1.35 billion in the first weekend, easily squeezed out "King Kong Skull Island", which only sat on the box office champion of imported films in 2017 less than a week ago, and broke the box office record of 2.427 billion for "Fast and Furious 7".

By the way, the sixth master was pulled out again to be an industry benchmark...

Sometimes I wonder if foreigners are more extreme, and a lot of times, they will pursue something to the extreme, and they are not afraid of losing others. For example, "Super 8" pursues racing cars to the extreme, macho men, and beautiful women. And we often strive for perfection, or balance, harmony, and moderation. As a result, European and American blockbusters can always shock us, but domestic ones are always not tasteful enough. ’

And then scolded by a bunch of people ...

Regardless of whether what the sixth master said is right or not, but after the box office failure of "1942", you immediately made a kitsch to the extreme "Private Custom"...

Where is the 'human heart'?

In a word: the level is not enough, everyone looks like pretending!

He should really learn from Lao Mouzi, and he has earned enough money, so he can set an example for young people, cultivate his self-cultivation, don't criticize so much and criticize that, it's good!

Be human, be decent!

Lu Xiaoran didn't say half a word about "Fast and Furious" - he was busy shooting, but he just said on Weibo:

"Thank you for supporting I Can Say, not because of the compassion of their tragic pasts, but because of the way they have come to terms with their painful experiences. That's what this film wants to express!"

This phrase was published by him in a tuba ...

......

""Wolf Warrior 2" is scheduled for July 27?"

"Hmm... When we finished last year, we said that it would be released on July 27..."

Wu Jing nodded affirmatively...

"Wolf Warrior 2" is actually a film dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the founding of the army, but it collided head-on with "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army"...

"The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army" was supposed to be released on August 1st, why was it changed to July 27?

Obviously, he wants to rely on the popularity of a bunch of small fresh meat to seize the film...

Squeeze the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2"!

Wu Jing has been under a lot of pressure - he is not Lu Xiaoran, it is impossible to be unpredictable...
