Chapter 507: 1 Billion!(4000 Words!)
Every year, the Chinese New Year stalls are the most lively schedules of the year, and as the end of the year approaches, everyone has time and money.
However, this year, Tang An and Zhang Yimou, the two major directors, will participate, but it is not as lively as last year's 5 blockbusters.
Jiang Wen didn't know what he was messing up, and Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, and Chen Kexin were all available.
Some films that are not confident are squeezed into January and February.
Compared with last year, not only is the New Year file a little bleak, but the next February is similar, and there are not many weighty movies.
Even in the next 20 days, there will not be a decent movie released, and the three blockbusters can always dominate all the scheduled films, which is enough to harvest a wave of box office.
On Monday the 19th, "The Martian" still won 40 million yuan in the third week of its release with a 43% decline.
"The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" fell by only 35% the next Monday, and won 32 million the next Monday.
"Dragon Gate Flying Armor" has also won 28 million with a 38% decline, and the single-day market continues to exceed 100 million.
The trend of all three films is very solid, and "The Martian" has been released in its third week, and the decline is relatively large.
"Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" have just been released, and there were too few films scheduled last weekend, and there is still a lot of potential, so there is nothing strange about this trend.
No one is left behind, and the next thing is to see how hard the publicity is.
Online and offline, all channels of publicity are used.
Displays on TV stations, movie theaters, bus stops, indoors and outdoors, and even on trains and planes......
QQ pop-ups, Sogou input method pop-ups, Xinlang Weibo homepage, major portals, major forums, major APP splash screens......
No matter when and where, whether it is in reality or on the Internet, advertisements for the three movies can be seen everywhere.
The three crews ran all over the country, Tang An took the crew south again, and the eastern coast went all the way down from the central part after the run.
On the plane to Changsha, take advantage of this flight time to take a break and chat for a while.
In so many cities across the country, the crew has been divided into two groups, Liu Ye and Li Binbin, the male and female protagonists, and Tang An with Yang Mi and Wang Kai.
But later, they are going to Shonan to show on the stage, and they will come to gather at noon.
"Hey, by the way, you two, LeTV wants to cooperate with the company to remake Guo Jinming's "Little Times" into a movie, you see for yourself if there are any suitable roles, and then let your general manager go to Mr. Chen. ”
The adaptation of "Little Times" has been negotiated, and the three are planned to be made into a trilogy, one by one.
Of course, if the first part is pounced, there will be no second and third parts.
Three investors, Guo Jinming, LeTV Pictures, and Cai Zhiping, a famous producer of Baodao.
Hantang Media does not participate in the investment, but controls the issuance and receives a 12% distribution share.
Cai Zhiping is the producer who produced "Meteor Garden", and he controls the entire project and is responsible for determining the style and team of the film.
Of course, the director is still Guo Jinming.
is still the same as the original, they are all professional filmmakers, and there is nothing strange about Cai Zhiping's main control project.
As for the movie being sprayed, to be honest, the producers don't care, the audience is different.
For capital, film is a commodity, and what to do is to satisfy the potential audience of this commodity.
The main potential audience is Guo Jingping's fans and his book fans, if you abandon this point and cater to other audiences, in case neither side is pleasing in the end, it will be empty.
Of course, the film is really not good......
However, the movie still has advantages, unlike the rich second generation in "Meteor Garden" and "Let's Watch Meteor Shower", there is something like the rich second generation.
"Little Times" shows the real luxury, a cup is 5,000 yuan, a dress is 500,000 yuan, and Yang Mi has a dress of several million.
It's all custom-made, at least it's better than many films.
As for the other advantages, let's see what happens...
Tang An didn't care about this film, and handed it over to Chen Guozhang to discuss, anyway, it was an insignificant project.
Among the actors, Cai Zhiping stuffed four or five treasure island actors in at a time, there are no actors under LeTV, and if Tang An's actors want to go, he won't stop them, there is nothing to persuade, they are all adults who know how to choose.
The major studios in the company basically know what is going on, and Yang Mi and Wang Kai naturally heard about a new project in the company.
Tang An said it himself, that must be the main character.
"Brother An, I read the first part of that book yesterday, and the view of money in that book really made me speechless, and I didn't want to take it. Yang Mi pursed his lips and said.
Yang Mi has nothing to be excited about, such an unreliable team and unreliable director may not be worth it.
Wang Kai is starring in two TV series now, "Why Sheng Xiaomo" has not been broadcast yet, there is no important role in the movie, and this time there will definitely be no refusal to have a leading actor.
He hurriedly said, "Director Tang, don't worry, I will definitely cherish this opportunity." ”
Tang An looked at Yang Mi and smiled, "Really, this is the heroine, and there will be a series of films later." ”
"I don't want it, I can't read that book. Yang Mi still insisted on shaking her head.
"That's okay, this is what it is made for fans, Guo Jinming's first time making a movie, I don't know what it will be, it doesn't matter if I take it or not. ”
If Yang Mi doesn't answer, Wan Qian and Zhao Liying are not suitable, but you can't waste a heroine in vain, Tang An ordered Xiao He, the assistant behind him.
"When you get off the plane, you will notify the major studios and go to various film and television schools to choose a suitable actress. ”
There are four films in a series, and no matter how you can come out, you can come out with a second line.
Anyway, Guo Jinming has a lot of fans, and he is a writer directing across industries, so there must be a lot of topics, even if he finds a newcomer to star, there is not much difference.
With more and more films invested and distributed by the company, several studios have to continue to sign new talents, and too many roles have no actors, so they can only find artists from other companies.
After mentioning it, I stopped thinking about the project and lay down and rested for a while.
The plane arrived at Nagasa Airport not long after, and after staying at the airport for a while, it was picked up by a car sent by Shonandai.
Arriving at Shonantai, the actor took a break, and Tang An had to participate in an exclusive interview first.
The studio scene has been arranged, the time is tight and the task is urgent, Tang An cleaned up a little, and communicated with the hosts He Yu, Li Weijia, and Xie Wei for a while, and the interview began.
It's a temporary interview special, and the other materials to be used, the tidbits in the shooting, and some movie plots have been edited in advance.
After saying hello and making an opening statement, the interview began.
"Hello Director Tang. ”
"Hello Teacher He, Hello Wei Jia, Nana. ”
"Director Tang, we all know that you have made seven movies in the past seven years, and each of them has been well received and acclaimed, how have you always maintained a very high standard?"
He Yi started with a very broad concept, looking at the domestic films in the past ten years, there are definitely no more than 5 domestic films that can be applauded and applauded every year.
And the director who can do a good job of being applauded and acclaimed, and is not only a director of one or two movies, is only Tang An.
Zhang Yimou's "Three Guns" and Feng Xiaogang's "Night Banquet" are all masterpieces with poor reputation.
Tang An had already typed the draft in his heart, thought for a while and said, "This is a bit like a fish and a bear's paw, it is not easy to have both." Every type of movie has its selling points, and by grasping these selling points and satisfying what the audience expects to see when they walk into the cinema, they can basically be a blockbuster. ”
Xie Wei answered next to him, "In other words, just like a comedy movie wants to make the audience laugh, an action movie wants to be exciting, right?"
"Yes. ”
Tang An smiled and nodded, "The audience has been selected to watch a movie, such as "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", "The Martian", and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor". ”
Tang An paused and looked at Xie Wei, "For example, Nana, you decided to go to the cinema to watch "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", but there were no wonderful action scenes and stunts in the film, and it was made into a costume idol film, and several protagonists began to fall in love, will you be disappointed." ”
"Of course it will!" Xie Wei looked very angry.
Tang An smiled, "After deciding to shoot a genre, you have to think about what the audience is interested in about this type of film, find the right direction, and half of the success will be successful, and the other half will depend on the effect of shooting." ”
The three of them pretended to be stunned, and then said "applause".
"For commercial films, in addition to the wonderful plot and special effects, if you want to be "applauded", you must inject feelings into the movie, and emotion is the thing that can most mobilize people's hearts. ”
"In "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", the revolutionary martyrs such as Premier Zhou, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu heard about the victory of the Huaihai Campaign, drank wine, smashed bowls, and twisted Yangge, were they very moved to watch?"
In "Tangshan Earthquake", the cruelty of the disaster, the preciousness of family affection, and the brilliance of human nature are condensed in the joys and sorrows of a small family, so that the audience has also tasted the ups and downs. ”
"Not only domestic films, but also those commercial films in Hollywood also integrate family, family, love, friendship ......"
"There is no film that can leave emotion, can be perfectly integrated into the movie, and is not pretentious, can infect the audience, and can probably be applauded. ”
Even Hollywood's young popcorn movies are inseparable from emotion.
He Yu asked again, "Why doesn't Director Tang talk about his own movies, which movie of your character can best mobilize the deep emotions of the audience?"
Before Tang An could speak, Xie Wei interjected, "Let Director Tang say that it's not boasting, I should boast about this... No, it's me. ”
"Alright, Nana, come on. ”
Xie Wei said seriously, "Actually, I think it's ......."
He Yan smiled exaggeratedly, "Nana is really a real person, she can analyze movies, and maybe she can become a director in the future." ”
"Really!"
Xie Wei happily asked Tang An, "Director Tang, do you think I have the potential to be a director?"
Tang An smiled, "Nana's analysis is very good, no one is born to direct, if you are interested, you can learn some professional knowledge and try." ”
Go for it, let's go, writers, singers, hosts, actors, and everyone wants to be a director in the future, and this one is not bad.
Anyway, if she really wants to make a film, the audience who has been cheated will ask for more blessings.
The interview continues, and the atmosphere of the three hosts is not bad, not serious at all.
There are more interviews every year, coupled with the change of identity, Tang An is not led by the three of them.
Many artists are easy to be rhythmized by the host, but there are also hosts who let the interviewee take the rhythm.
The cross talk actor is very good at this, and he gets a general business host interview, and he is rhythmized by the cross talk actor in a few sentences.
or has a relatively high status, such as the time when Wang Shoufu accepted an exclusive interview with Lu Yu, the audience was embarrassed to commit cancer, and there was no professional level at all.
However, after accepting Lu Yu's interview, Wanda began to pop up a lot of negative news.
Just after she had interviewed Bo Guagua's happy family, his family broke up.
After interviewing LSJ for his excellent parenting experience, his son had an accident.
After interviewing Li Yapeng's legendary love story, he divorced.
After interviewing Wen Zhang, a responsible husband and father, he cheated.
Therefore, Tang An has never accepted Lu Yu's personal interview, and he always took the crew to Phoenix Satellite TV collectively.
After all, there are many people, and they can withstand the poisonous milk!
......
The interview, which lasted an hour and a half, ended, and everything went well.
After the end, Liu Ye and Li Binbin's group also came, and they wanted to record an issue of the base camp, and they went to chat with a few hosts first.
Tang An went to visit the director of Shonan Station.
Ou Changlin got up and asked Tang An to sit down, "Hello Tang Dong, this is the first time we've met." ”
Tang An shook hands with him and said with a smile, "Hello Director Ou." ”
"Tang Dong, the "Step by Step Shocking" you invested in is very popular now, not worse than "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but it's a pity that our station didn't get this opportunity. Ou Changlin said with some regret.
Tang An said politely, "Director Ou is polite, your station has the highest ratings in China except for CCTV, and the ratings of any TV series are not bad." ”
Ou Changlin said with a smile, "Then there must be a good drama broadcast, if Tang Dong has any TV series next year, don't forget about our station." ”
"It must be, next year may increase the output of TV dramas, I'm afraid no one wants it. ”
"Tang Dong is humble......"
To be polite, Ou Changlin also said something.
They plan to make a "Quick Book: Happy Home", which they want to jointly release with Han Tang.
Tang An also agreed, and the two sides will send someone to talk when the specific time comes.
The actors recorded the show, and Tang An went to visit the chairman of the first listed media company in China, the chairman of TV and Radio Media, and the general manager of Xiaoxiang Cinema Line established by Changsha Optoelectronics, and also accepted a half-hour interview with Xiaoxiang Morning News, the newspaper with the largest circulation in southern Hunan.
......
Everywhere I go, I am busy, local TV stations, cinemas, optoelectronics, a lot of things, and I have to promote movies.
In the next week and 5 working days, "The Martian" once again won 214 million box office, continuing to win the weekly box office champion and daily box office champion.
As of December 24, "The Martian" has been released for 16 days, and the total domestic box office has reached 1.017 billion, becoming the second domestic film with a box office of more than one billion!
