Chapter 1: New Year's Layout (4/6)
Lu Xiaoran is now the leader in the industry, and the leader has to say something that may offend the audience.
Fortunately, he was more rational and didn't say anything to call on the relevant departments to intervene...
Movie matters, let's get less involved!
Film, from the industry gradually to the industry...
It can be very rough at first, very violent, very savage!
And then what?
There is actually nothing like this variety show movie, it is born by the market, and the market will correct it itself.
The public is not stupid, Lu Xiaoran said this because he saw...
But many marketing accounts say with rhythm that 'instead of complaining, it's better to shoot your own works'...
Don't underestimate the IQ of your audience?
Big brother, in fact, the audience is really easy to fool sometimes...
The matter was not resolved in the end.
At most, there are two sentences of online evaluation...
……
Corporate, conference room.
"Four major schedules: Spring Festival, summer, National Day, and Chinese New Year, I estimate that the box office of the top works in these four schedules can be one billion more!"
"Why not two billion?"
“… Do you think every film is called "Outwitting Tiger Mountain"?"
"Ahem..."Lu Xiaoran, who was a sycophant, was secretly refreshed, but this was a meeting: "Go on!"
"Okay," Zhang Jin smiled, and continued: "There should be no suspense in the National Day file of "Heart Flower Road", and the "Chinatown Detective" of the Chinese New Year file... We are now lacking a work that focuses on the summer file, and there is also a Spring Festival file next year..."
"How about director A Mou's "International Market" hitting next year's Spring Festival?"
“… No, it's a big tragedy!"
"What tragedy? It's obviously a big brother who has worked hard all his life for the family, and there is a tragedy there?"
"International Market", the main plot is that the male protagonist carries his family on his whole life in order to fulfill his promise to his dying father:
(The plot is about a family in Chinatown, not a domestic...) )
From 45 years onwards, he sang beggar songs to shine people's shoes.
When I was older, I went to do physical work, and I went to the dock to carry fish boxes for people and trained my eight-pack abs.
In the end, he gave up his studies for his younger brother to go to college and went to West Germany to work as a miner.
Nine deaths returned to the United States, married a beautiful wife, and had children of their own...
But not yet, he needs to support his family!
Fortunately, although it was very hard, the younger brothers and sisters have grown up, and the children and grandchildren are full of excitement, and they have finally fulfilled their promise to their father...
The plot is very profound, especially the passage inside: Our generation has gone through this so that our next generation will not experience it again!
It's not done yet.
“… Let's talk about this again," Zhong Lifang glanced at Zhang Jin, and then asked: "Isn't "Gravity" released during the Spring Festival next year?"
Chen Zhixi silently interjected: "You think too much, I think it's already very good to be able to complete it before next summer!"
"Late 18 months?"
"Maybe it's more than that, I don't know the specifics, it depends on the plan..."
"Spring Festival stalls, will pure comedy be better?"
“… Let's talk about this in the second half of the year, let's talk about this year's summer file, what are you going to do?"
"The Year in a Hurry" + "Raiders of the Lost Ark" + "Master of Hypnosis" three movies!"
"Okay... The market will be very good this year and next year, as long as the quality of the movie is up to standard, there is a great possibility of a big hit..."
After chatting about these, Zhong Lifang read out the opinions of the symposium - the symposium on the Spring Festival stalls.
Symposiums are common, also known as briefings, where if the General Administration wants to convey a certain message or express an opinion on an issue, it will convene a meeting of relevant personnel in the film and television industry.
While listening to the opinions of insiders, he also conveyed the meaning of the General Administration.
It is specifically pointed out that it can be done to reboot the red classic, but it must be done well!
Lu Xiaoran was a little confused: "What does it mean to be good, and does it mean to sell well?"
“… I don't know, that's probably what it means. I heard director Sang Hua (director of Bayi Factory) say that when "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" was a big hit, there were many voices of opposition internally, as if it was saying that Bayi Factory was surnamed Jun and could not be turned into a processing plant of other capital. ”
"It's also true, Bayi Factory itself is a military fund, and cooperating with us is really criticized. ”
"Will the cooperation continue after that?"
said okay, after "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", I will continue to shoot "The Radio Waves That Never Disappear" and "Railway Flying Tiger", now it seems that it is a little difficult...
Lu Xiaoran pondered for a moment, and then said, "We won't follow up, they can talk to other companies." ”
……
Today is February 25th, "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" has been released for 26 days, and the single-day box office has dropped to around 15 million, ranking below "The Hobbit 2" in the past few days...
The speed of box office convergence has slowed down greatly, which is also the inevitable law of all movies.
Each film has a certain value retention period, and the film theater value retention period with commercial production as the main selling point is relatively shorter!
In the mature market, except for the metamorphosis of "Avatar" and "Titanic", most of the popularity was only in the first two weeks.
"Outwitting Tiger Mountain" has been the box office champion for 21 consecutive days, which is enough!
The cumulative box office is close to 2.2 billion, and it is also an inevitable choice to get the postponement key!
On the 28th, "Robocop" will be released, and next month, "Need for Speed", "Snowpiercer", and "Rio Adventure" will be released, which will definitely divert the box office.
The final box office of "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" will probably be around 2.3 billion...
Director Lu is already very satisfied...
The top two in the box office list of mainland film history, "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark", are all his movies.
The top five, "Charlotte's Troubles", "Thai Embarrassment", "Journey to the West", in addition to "Journey to the West", the other two are also orange works!
The Billion Club, the Two Billion Club, are all made by oranges...
Looking at the Chinese film industry, there is no one who can play!
Invincible is lonely...
Just putting that pretending to be forced, the mobile phone thought about it, it was Xu Guangtou calling.
He was invited to participate in the Directors Guild Commendation Conference...
"What's that?
"It's the award ceremony, isn't it now that the award is not given, so it's renamed the commendation conference!"
“… Who attended?"
"They are all insiders, directors, producers and actors..."
“… Okay, you send me the time and address. ”
Hanging up the phone, Lu Xiaoran suddenly remembered something, and dialed him back: "Lao Xu!"
“… What's wrong?
"I heard that when "Heart Blossom Road" was filmed, you guys were very messy!"
Xu Guangtou on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "... Who do you listen to?"
“… You don't care who says it, be careful, you can restrain as much as you can..."
"Boss, listen to me!" Lao Xu's words were full of helplessness: "It's really not our problem, the actress knocked on the door directly, and then it was hard, and we also wanted to resist..."
"Don't be, with the appearance of the three of you, who will take the initiative to come to the door?"
“… Lie to you, I'm a grandson!"
