Chapter 353: Eating Inside and Out?
It's just a summary of the story, and if the script wants to come out, it needs to be improved step by step.
What will be the end result, no one can guarantee.
Now that the film is scheduled, I don't want Xiangjiang in the 80s, if I have an idea, I dare to start it immediately.
The script for "The Avengers" came out, and the story went the same way as the original. It's just that the sword fairy played by Li Ruoxi and the martial god played by Mu Ze are added to it.
Of course, some scenes have been reduced accordingly.
"When will this film start?" Li Ruoxi then asked.
"I guess it's going in the second half of the year. Mu Chen said.
Li Ruoxi nodded.
Preparation takes time, and with so many characters integrated into one film, it takes time for the cast to be adjusted.
What's more, "Iron Man 2" is still filming, and the post-production of "Transformers" also needs Mu Chen to follow up.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and the promotion of films released during the Spring Festival has entered a white-hot stage.
There is no doubt that this year's Spring Festival stalls are more intense.
Dawn Film and Television's films have been successful at the foreign box office, and by the way, they have also raised the tastes of domestic fans.
Domestic film and television companies have to start from the quality of the film and continue to increase investment in order to achieve excellence.
This also makes Chinese films move towards a virtuous circle.
The potential of the domestic box office market continues to be stimulated, and films with hundreds of millions of investments are likely to recoup their costs in China.
This is undoubtedly the basis for the film's increased investment.
When the domestic box office is very awesome to break 100 million, do you dare to invest hundreds of millions to shoot a film?
Apparently impossible.
And now, if a film doesn't have a box office of hundreds of millions, it will hit the street.
If the investment is large and there is no billion-dollar box office, it will also hit the street, and it will not be a failure at best.
It seems that if the box office breaks two billion, it can be regarded as a success.
The size of the market determines the courage of investors.
Dawn Film and Television has produced a lot of films, and the box office is extremely amazing.
Perhaps, the box office of Dawn Film and Television abroad is much better than that of other domestic film and television companies, but it is not a monopoly in China.
From time to time, other film and television companies will also break out a film with an amazing box office.
Of course, the top ten films on the box office list today are basically produced by Dawn Film and Television.
The investment cost of Marin's "Kung Fu" is not high, only more than 100 million Chinese dollars. Compared with the other three films, it is much worse in terms of cost.
However, in terms of box office competitiveness, it is not weak.
With the successive success of several films, Marin is now a director with considerable box office appeal in China.
What's more, this "Kung Fu" also has the gimmick of "Mu Chen's screenwriter" in it.
The four films, whether from the perspective of the main creator or investment, "Kung Fu" are all in a weak position.
However, the schedule of "Kung Fu" is not the lowest one.
Of course, it's not the highest one.
Mu Chen didn't pay much attention.
Of course, it's not without attention.
In recent years, Mu Chen's films have basically been released in the summer, and there is naturally less attention to the Spring Festival files.
Moreover, when the film was released, Mu Chenren was in his hometown.
This year, of course, is no exception.
In recent years, during the Spring Festival, Mu Chen's time in his hometown has been getting longer and longer.
Maybe it's because Mu Chen's time is becoming more and more autonomous, or maybe it's because his parents and family are getting older.
Mu Chen goes home for the New Year every year, and this matter is still praised by many people.
How many people can put down their work and spend the Spring Festival with their families every year like Mu Chen?
"You're going to send this little guy to kindergarten next year, right?" Mu Chen smiled and touched Mu Qing's head and said to Mu Ze.
"I have this idea!" Mu Ze nodded and said, "However, this kid is too skinny, and he is a little worried." ”
"Boys, it's normal to be naughty. Mu Chen said with a smile.
"It's better to be a daughter, you see how obedient Xiaoxue is. Mu Ze smiled and looked at Mu Xue, who was sitting obediently next to Li Ruoxi not far away.
"If you want a daughter, give birth to one!" Mu Chen smiled and said.
"I don't know if it's yet. Mu Ze smiled and said.
"Huh?" Mu Chen looked at Mu Ze suspiciously.
Mu Ze smiled and nodded.
Su Xiaowan is pregnant with a second child?
"What about you?" Mu Ze then asked, "Have you ever thought about having a second child?" ”
"This kind of thing, just follow the fate. Mu Chen said.
The two-child policy has long been opened.
What's more, even if you don't let go of the second child, Mu Chen wants to give birth, and it's not that she can't afford to pay the fine.
He and Li Ruoxi had no protection, nor did they deliberately prepare.
"The company seems to be preparing to shoot "Resident Evil 3", I'm afraid it will have to be put on hold. Mu Ze said.
"That's fine. Mu Chen said, "The second part hasn't been released yet!"
"Resident Evil" is a series of movies, the first part may not be much of an explosion at the box office, but its popularity is not low, especially after the related game came out, it was loved by many players.
The second part is released, and the box office should be greatly improved.
Whether it is the investment or the scenes, I don't know how much bigger this film is than the first one.
During the Chinese New Year, there are two little guys, and it is still very lively.
And there was a lot of joy.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Mu Chen's family habitually stayed in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Spring Festival Gala, as always.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, films such as "Kung Fu" were released, and the Spring Festival stall battle entered the most intense stage.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan took Mu Qing back to Yanjing and prepared to go to Su Xiaowan's hometown.
They do that every year now.
When Mu Chen sent Mu Ze and them to the airport, the box office of "Kung Fu" came out on the first day.
276 million!
Ranked second at the single-day box office.
The Champion is an interstellar sci-fi film with a large investment.
The publicity is very strong, and the box office appeal of the main creator is also very strong.
The box office broke 300 million on the first day.
The special effects of the film are undoubtedly a highlight.
"The special effects of "Starry Sky" are also made by Xuanying Digital?" Li Ruoxi asked Mu Chen curiously.
"Nowadays, almost all the special effects of domestic blockbusters are covered by Xuanying Digital. Mu Chen said with a smile.
Mu Chen's special effects company is now in the world, and it is also a top-notch existence. Not to mention that it has taken over all the special effects production in China, but there is basically no surprise with the big order.
Even if it is the movie special effects of companies such as Jiying Film and Television, which have some "grievances" with Mu Chen, they are mostly looking for Xuanying numbers.
Every year, the profits brought by Xuanying Digital to Mu Chen are also extremely amazing.
However, in terms of research, Mu Chen also spent a lot of money.
"Do you think there will be a breakthrough at the foreign box office in this film?" Li Ruoxi then asked.
The films produced by Dawn Film and Television have performed extremely well at the box office abroad.
And this has also driven the international box office of other Chinese-language films.
However, it seems that in addition to those films of Dawn Film and Television, the blockbusters of other domestic film and television companies are not satisfactory at the box office abroad.
This may also be the reason why Mu Chen is recognized as the most internationally minded filmmaker in China.
"I haven't seen that film, so it's hard to say. Mu Chen shook his head and said.
"Take some time to take a look?" Li Ruoxi said with a smile.
"Okay!"
Mu Chen nodded in response.
He and Li Ruoxi should not have gone to the theater to watch a movie together for a long time!
Nowadays, Star City also has quite a few theaters.
Mu Chen and Li Ruoxi want to watch this movie, so naturally they don't need to wait until after returning to Yanjing.
The story of Starfield is actually not complicated.
In general, blockbusters will not make the plot too complicated.
Except, of course, for feature films.
This film tells the story of a team wandering in the stars who accidentally get involved in an interstellar war.
The film is grand and the special effects are amazing.
The plot is smooth, it doesn't drag on, the small high tide continues, and the big high tide emerges one after another.
I have to say, this is an excellent sci-fi film.
If it weren't for Dawn Films, there were a lot of excellent science fiction films. This film is enough to be a phenomenal film.
"The foreign box office may also be good. Mu Chen said, "I didn't expect Ningyang to have such a study of science fiction films." ”
The film "Starry Night" is invested and produced by Huarui Pictures and directed by Ning Yang.
"Since it's good, let's give a recommendation!" Li Ruoxi said with a smile.
"Good!"
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in response.
Li Ruoxi and Ningyang have cooperated several times, and they belong to the same company, and the relationship between the two is still good.
Not long ago, the film co-produced by Huarui Pictures and Hollywood Film and Television Company in which Li Ruoxi participated was directed by Ning Yang.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, Li Ruoxi and Ning Yang's wife have an excellent relationship.
And the heroine of this film is Ning Yang's wife.
Before the film was released, Li Ruoxi also posted a Weibo recommendation.
The word-of-mouth fermentation of "Starry Night" was released, and on the second day of its release, the box office did not decline, but increased slightly, and the single-day box office still maintained 300 million.
The box office of "Kung Fu" is still close behind, although it has not declined, but it is estimated that it is impossible to catch up.
At this time, Mu Chen's Weibo sparked heated discussions.
He posted on Weibo to recommend movies, not "Kung Fu" directed by Ma Lin, who was not involved in the screenwriting, but "Starry Night"!
Although there are not many words, it is only a "worth seeing" evaluation, but it is also extremely rare.
Mu Chen did not recommend many films on Weibo, but he did not direct it himself, that is, he wrote the screenplay.
This is undoubtedly the first time he has recommended someone else's film.
He also posted movie tickets on Weibo.
This is what he recommended after watching the film.
He recommended it so, and the effect can be imagined.
Mu Chen, after all, is the director with the most box office appeal in China.
"I said Lao Mu, are you eating inside and out?" Ma Lin called to express his dissatisfaction and said, ""Kung Fu is invested and produced by your company." You don't recommend this film, but you recommend its competitors?"
"I don't recommend that film, and Kung Fu doesn't have a chance to surpass it at the box office. Mu Chen said.
The reputation of "Kung Fu" is also extremely good.
However, it is a little less amazing than "Starry Night".
"But with your recommendation, that film is even more popular, and the distance between the two films has been widened!" Marin said.
The box office on the first day was about the same, and Marin still wanted to catch up.
As soon as the box office came out the next day, he still felt that there was still a chance. But Mu Chen's recommendation on Weibo instantly made him feel that he had no chance.
