Chapter 289: Anything with a homophonic name is a bad movie (4/7)

"Thank you for your support!"

After taking a group photo with a few young fans, Professor Lu walked into the hotel.

Tong Yali witnessed these and sighed with emotion: ""You from the Star" is really popular all over Asia!"

“... That was hundreds of chapters ago!"

"Are you no longer acting?"

"No, it's just that I haven't met any characters who want to challenge. ”

Sitting down, the waiter served a glass of ice water, Lu Xiaoran took a sip, and then said: ""The Dark Side" is not a work released last month!"

The box office of "The Dark Side" stopped at 660 million...

But it has already made money, as a low-cost movie with no special effects, no big scenes, and a production cost of 8 million per million, it has brushed down 660 million...

What more do you want?

Of course, if the actor's salary is included at the beginning, the cost will be as high as 50 million at least - Lu Xiaoran's basic actor salary is 32 million...

"I read your Douban information, it seems that there are no starring works?"

“... In the past two years, I have been busy directing, and I don't have much energy to pick scripts..."

Director Lu really has no energy...

Otherwise, he could have played Huang Langdon.

"Many of your fans are strongly asking you to have another idol drama!"

“... Come on, they'll know it's foolish... Lao Du, why haven't you come yet?"

Lao Du is Du Jie...

"They're going to the bar together!"

“... That shemale bar?"

"I don't know. ”

"Engaged in photography, his hobby is so unique!" complained about it, Lu Xiaoran thought of Zhang Xincheng again, and hurriedly called him, this kid is 17 years old this year, he can't learn badly!

Zhang Xincheng is a kid, Lu Xiaoran is very optimistic about him, he is good-looking and polite...

His college entrance examination score was 560 points, and he entered the Musical Drama Department of the Central Academy of Drama with the first place in culture and major.

is a very powerful newcomer, no worse than Liu Haoran!

Only then did he take out his mobile phone, Zhang Xincheng walked to the restaurant, and greeted him from afar: "Brother Xiaoran, Sister Ya!"

“... Why are you here?"

"I went back to my room to take a shower..."

"How many times a day do you take a shower?"

Zhang Xincheng smiled awkwardly...

"Sit down..."

"Let's eat first, don't wait for them!"

Thai food is either seafood or curry...

After more than a month, I feel that the I pull has a curry smell!

Fortunately, there are also a lot of fruits, and most of the time you will be full after eating some fruit.

The three of them chatted while eating, all of them were in the entertainment industry, and soon chatted about the Chinese New Year.

Tong Yali asked: "Is it true that "Charlotte's Troubles" will become a box office dark horse on the Internet?"

Producer Lu is very modest: "... It's hard to say. ”

Zhang Xincheng was curious: "Why?"

"In addition to the movie itself, the distribution of schedules, and the biggest impact on the box office is called public opinion, last year's "1942" can be called the conscience of Chinese films, but it was boycotted, which is called the black swan of public opinion, once this situation is encountered, no one can make it!"

There is another sentence, Lu Xiaoran did not say: There are two major traps to avoid in predicting the box office: the first is the explosion, which is unpredictable, mostly because the quality is too good and breaks the ceiling of the genre;

From the very beginning, "Charlotte's Troubles" was built according to the goal of becoming a hit.

......

What do the industry or a bunch of marketing accounts think of "Charlotte's Troubles"?

The first Douban comment before the release was: "Charlotte's Troubles"? I thought it was "Detective Sherlock", everything with a homophonic name is a bad movie!

Won more than 800 likes!

In fact, when Happy Twist, which has a strong drama atmosphere, filmed "Charlotte's Troubles", and was ready to evaluate the box office, many industry professionals actually refused.

In their opinion, the "Three No Drama Group", which has no nameless director, no star and no big production, can have a box office of tens of millions, which is the ceiling!

This can be clearly seen from the movie schedule, "Charlotte's Troubles" released on the first day is only 21% scheduled, which is tied with "The Four Famous Catches 2", which has been released for a week...

And thanks to the distribution team of Orange!

On the evening of December 11, Lu Xiaoran posted a Weibo:

From the 1.2 billion box office of "Thai Embarrassment", it can be concluded that the door to the film entertainment market has been opened, and the so-called era of film entertainment is actually the era of comedy, which has arrived, but this stage lasts for three to five years at most, and industrialized films will come.

The Chinese film market has huge potential, and genre is the direction of development in the future.

As filmmakers, it is our eternal mission to make more good movies for Chinese audiences!

May domestic films get better and better! This should also be the common wish of all people!

By the way, "Charlotte's Troubles" is one of the top 10 excellent comedy movies, and I said, you can buy tickets to watch it...

......

The theater chain is not very optimistic about "Charlotte's Troubles", on the contrary, the industry is staring at this movie - he must have a reason to be arranged by Orange to enter the Chinese New Year file and PK with Feng Xiaogang!

In the past two years, a bunch of people have been studying Lu Xiaoran.

Study his personality, his preferences, basically what he invests in, and soon someone else will follow suit...

Who made him successful every time?

It should be that not long after the orange was launched, Lu Xiaoran and Happy Twist established a film production company of Happy Pictures, and there are many film lists planned, but they have been planning - "Charlotte's Troubles" is the first work.

It's not always successful, and the investment in animation has not been fruitful - Orange has spent more than 300 billion to lay out animation, and it's been two years, and there is not even a little output...

Everyone felt that this investment had failed miserably...

You see, this is the difference between the pure investment community or investors and filmmakers, it is normal for the production cycle of an animated film to be three to five years, but investors want to produce it in one month, release it in one month, and pay for it in three months.

Huayi, office, a bunch of people are studying the distribution and publicity of "Private Custom"...

Director Feng Da went to direct the Spring Festival Gala, and he didn't have time to run publicity, so he had to come to the company!

Media Field...

Bad word-of-mouth.

However, some people still believe that the market response of "Private Custom" will not be too bad in the future, and now that it has entered the Chinese New Year file, market sentiment and audience spending power should rebound, and there are no films that can pose a substantial threat to it during the same period, and the quality of Feng Xiaogang's movies is still guaranteed.

It's the sentence 'There are no movies in the same period that can pose a substantial threat to it'...

What Hua Yi is most afraid of is that "Charlotte's Troubles" will become a threatening film!

Huang Zhonglei knocked on the table: "Talk about the marketing methods of "Charlotte". ”

"They cooperate with Tencent Video, a little to open the Tenexun video, the homepage recommendation has "Charlotte Troubles", click on the special ticket link..."

"Tencent is also an investor?"

"Well, it seems to be the second investor!"

"And Tencent said that once the total box office exceeds 500 million, it will add 30 million tickets!"

"I knew they were prepared!"

"There is also "Today's Headlines", they also spent money on publicity, and the title is 'Witnessing the birth of the box office champion of domestic comedy films'..."

“... Their trailer has also been clicked over 100 million!"

Huang Zhonglei: "Who gave him the courage to be the box office champion of domestic comedy?"

"What about the first-day box office?"

"It's still counting, there are already 24 million, and it is estimated that it can win 36 million at the box office on the first day..."

"It's only 36 million... Nothing to worry about!"
