Chapter 565: I guess I can get a nomination
Approaching the Spring Festival, several people get together, that is, chatting.
Film and television are naturally also unavoidable topics.
Mu Chen and several people are engaged in this industry, even Wang Hao has also changed careers from this industry.
The theory of film and television winter has its own opinions.
Mu Chen won't meet it, Ma Lin won't either, and Zhao Jin and the others will naturally not either.
Dawn film and television has a profound heritage, but it has been somewhat affected, and it is irrelevant.
The artists under Dawn Film and Television are not short of filming.
Zhao Jin and others have a lot of popularity in the world, so there is no shortage of filming.
"It's the Spring Festival again, and it feels like it's over after a shake. Wang Hao said, "Time flies so fast!"
"Shake it and pass, that proves that you have had a smooth sailing this year! Why, do you think this is not good, and you want to encounter some setbacks and feel the torment?" Zhao Jin pouted and said.
"Actually, it seems like a lot of work has been done when you think about it. Marin said.
"Of course you!" Mu Chen said with a smile, "I'm married, I'm on my honeymoon, there are films released, and there are films that have started shooting." Now, I'm about to be a father again. This year, your identity has changed twice, and it should be your most accomplished year. ”
"It would be perfect if we could win another prize. Zhao Jin said with a smile.
"It's not easy. Ma Lin said, "I estimate that Lu Hai's "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and Chen Guodong's "Young You" have a good chance of winning the award. ”
"You may also win the prize!" Zhao Jin looked at Mu Chen and said.
"Me?" Mu Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "My movie has not been completed in the later stage, and I haven't participated in it, how can I win the award?"
"Best screenwriter!" Wang Hao said.
"Oh!" Mu Chen came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, he really forgot about it.
With the performance and influence of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and "Young You", it is really possible.
"Maybe the best movie song too. Zhao Jin said.
"Who knows!" Mu Chen said, "The competition for the Golden Dragon Award is getting bigger and bigger. ”
The influence of the Golden Dragon Awards is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more excellent movies coming.
Of course, the development of Chinese films and the frequent emergence of high-quality products are the key.
"I don't think you care. Marin said, "If you win more awards, don't you have less expectations for awards?"
"Is it possible?" Mu Chen shook his head and said, "If you pay, everyone wants to reciprocate." Who doesn't want to win an award for their work?"
Mu Chen really has no desire to win awards for the best screenwriter of films such as "I Am Not the God of Medicine".
But if it is "Covering the Sky", his desire for awards is great.
The Spring Festival is coming soon.
Mu Chen's family and Mu Ze's family returned to their hometown a few days in advance.
As children grow older, they get older, and their parents are getting older.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, "Journey to the West" was released.
This time, I was prepared, I left a private room in advance, and Mu Chen took a large family of theaters to watch the third part of this "Journey to the West" IP adaptation.
"This film is not the end of 'Journey to the West', there should be an adapted film in the follow-up, right?" Mu Ze asked Mu Chen.
"Of course!" Mu Chen said, "The big IP of 'Journey to the West' has a lot of films that can be adapted. In fact, whether it is "Journey to the West" or "Journey to the West", it is just born from "Journey to the West", borrowing some of the characters in it, and the story has little to do with "Journey to the West". ”
"Will Lao Yu continue to make this film?" Mu Ze said casually.
"I'm sure I'll shoot it, but I won't shoot it again. Mu Chen said, "The company intends to let him make a sequel to "Men in Black", this series of movies actually has a very good box office foundation. If you keep leaving it all the time, it's a waste. ”
Mu Ze nodded.
He knew that "Men in Black" was not a movie from the beginning, but a series.
"The movie series of Dawn Film and Television is still a little less than the movie series of Dream Pictures. Mu Ze said.
There are actually quite a few movie series in the hands of Dawn Film and Television.
In addition to the "Men in Black" series they just mentioned, there are also the "Transformers" series, the "Journey to the West" series, as well as the "Jurassic Park" series, the "Resident Evil" series, the "Kung Fu Panda" series that has just ended, and the "Minions" series that has just begun.
The animated film "Despicable Me" will also be released next year.
However, Dream Pictures has more series of movies.
The "Fast and Furious" series, the "Harry Potter" series, the "Terminator" series, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the upcoming "Lord of the Rings" series, as well as the "Mutants" series that have already started filming and the upcoming "Mission Impossible" series, etc.
Of course, the superhero movie world, which is shared by Dawn Pictures and Dream Pictures.
If you think about it carefully, these series of movies seem to be out of Mu Chen's hands.
One person, unexpectedly made so many series of movies.
And, in addition to that, a world of superhero movies has been created.
If the "Covering the Sky" world is successfully built?
That's unimaginable!
No wonder the multimedia says that Mu Chen is the king of commercial films.
In the second year of junior high school, Mu Chen, as always, sent Mu Ze's family to the airport.
After coming back, I got the box office data of the first day of "Journey to the West".
"What is the actual box office?" Li Ruoxi said with a smile.
The box office data presented on the Internet is for reference only.
Everyone in the circle knows this.
"Break 400 million!" Mu Chen said.
His tone was flat, not very excited, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him.
Perhaps, I have seen too many films that have broken 400 million, and I am used to it.
Moreover, this film broke 400 million, which itself was expected by Mu Chen.
"It is not surprising that the IP of 'Journey to the West' broke 400 million at the domestic box office on the first day. Li Ruoxi said, "What about foreign ones?"
"It's not out yet!" Mu Chen said, "However, the popularity of the film should not be as good as in China, especially in North America and Europe." ”
"Not necessarily!" Li Ruoxi said.
The last "Journey to the West" was extremely impressive at the box office abroad, not to mention that Chinese movies are becoming more and more popular abroad.
Whether it is the expansion of the film market or the story of "Journey to the West", it is well known to more and more foreign fans.
This will undoubtedly increase the fan base of the film "Journey to the West", so the box office of the film will definitely increase.
And the facts are as Li Ruoxi guessed.
This film has not only achieved excellent box office in Southeast Asia and other countries and regions that are greatly influenced by Chinese culture, but even won almost all of them the local single-day box office champions.
The same is true for places like North America and Europe.
The first-day box office in North America even broke $60 million, winning the single-day box office championship.
Although, in this schedule, there are no blockbusters released in North America, and there are no competitive movie tickets in the same period, it is undoubtedly extremely good to win 60 million US dollars in a single day.
Chinese-language films, except for Mu Chen's films and those superhero movies, are only a handful of them that can get this first-day box office in North America.
Judging from the current box office trend, the film is likely to exceed one billion dollars at the global box office.
There is no doubt that the film is on fire.
Not just domestic fires, but global fires.
The film became popular, and the global sales of Mu Chen's "Journey to the West" skyrocketed again.
It seems that every time an adapted film is released, he has to follow the fire.
And with the fire, there is also the Dawn Dream Theme Park.
Of course, the optimistic theme of Dawn Dream often skyrockets in foot traffic because of the release of the corresponding film.
Just like before, "Thanos" was a big hit, and "Thanos" in the theme park became the first choice for many people to take photos.
The film became popular, but Mu Chen paid little attention.
stayed in his hometown until the seventh day of the first month, and Mu Chen's family returned to Yanjing.
After the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, many office workers start to work, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival is much lighter. Mu Chen also continued the later stages of his film.
After the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the atmosphere of the Spring Festival gradually dissipated.
"Journey to the West" has been released for half a month, and the domestic box office has exceeded 3 billion, and it is also the first film to break 3 billion since the beginning of the year.
This film is naturally the biggest winner of the Spring Festival.
However, if there is no accident, the four billion mark will be difficult to break.
As for the foreign box office, North America has broken $300 million, and the global box office has exceeded $1 billion.
This film is also the first film in the world to break one billion dollars since the beginning of the year.
"The list of nominees for the Golden Dragon Award is out. Chen Fuhai handed Mu Chen a form and said, "You have been shortlisted for two nominations." ”
Mu Chen smiled and took a look.
He was nominated for Best Screenplay for "I Am Not the God of Medicine", and was also nominated for the Best Film Song Award for the song "Overheating".
"This year, Dawn Film and Television is no longer so ugly in the actor awards. Mu Chen said with a smile.
Huang Yao was nominated for Best Actor for "I Am Not the God of Medicine".
And Chen Kun was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor with this film.
In addition, Zhao Jin was nominated for Best Actor for Marin's film.
There are two rookie actors in "Young You", one shortlisted for Best Actress and one shortlisted for Best Newcomer.
Not only is it not ugly, but it is extremely eye-catching.
Moreover, there are still a lot of films shortlisted by Dawn Film and Television.
"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" and "Thanos" were both shortlisted, but most of them were technical awards.
"At this year's Oscars, I don't know if there are any Chinese filmmakers. Chen Fuhai said.
The meaning of his words, those who just attended the award ceremony obviously did not count.
Last year, the most amazing film was probably "I Am Not the God of Medicine". However, Chen Fuhai is obviously not optimistic that this film can hit the Oscars.
As for "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" and "Thanos", which swept the world at the box office, they were not welcomed by the Oscar judges, let alone had no chance.
As for the films produced by other film and television companies, don't mention it.
"I guess I can get a nomination!" Mu Chen smiled and said.
Although Steve's "Gone with the Wind" was not released, it participated in this year's Oscars.
Mu Chen felt that he should be shortlisted for Best Screenplay with this film.
