Chapter 774: Cutting off the beard
"Heart Flower Road" relies on a strong word-of-mouth and the publicity and distribution support of Hantang Media, and it is inevitable that it will be a box office hit.
On the first day of release on September 30, it received a high box office of 118 million, setting a new box office record for the National Day.
On October 1st, the day of the National Day, he got 144 million again, maintaining a steady upward trend.
262 million in two days, plus 40 million screened, the box office has exceeded 300 million.
Among other films in the same period, Huang Bo's series "Ruffian Hero: Dawn Rises" was released on the first day and received 36 million box office on the first day.
"Dear", which has been released for a week, got 17 million, with a total box office of 175 million.
The biographical "Golden Age", which was also released on the first day, directed by Xu Anhua and starring Tang Wei and Feng Shaofeng, only had a box office of 8.3 million on the first day.
Literary films do not have much soil for survival anywhere, not only are there almost no literary films that sell well in China, but even in Europe, it is also the world of commercial blockbusters.
However, although literary films are not blockbusters, there are many commercial films that have sharpened their heads and want to lean on literary films.
For example, "Beijing Meets Seattle", or later Liu Luoying's "Later Us".
Liu Luoying admitted the commercial nature of the film at the time of the latter's premiere, but after the box office success, all the drafts became "love literary films that supported the May Day file with their own strength".
It's just for publicity, after all, commercial films with a box office of 500 million and literary films with a box office of 500 million have different topics and popularity.
And a billion-dollar box office literary film can be blown to death.
"Heart Flower Road" was a big hit at the box office, and it can even be said that it swept all the movies in the same period, and the box office of other movies added up was less than half of "Heart Flower Road".
Ning Hao has become a hot figure in the entertainment industry, for Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, although this movie is not as important as Ning Hao, it can be regarded as the icing on the cake, and it is a big red flower.
The three have also become the focus and attraction of major companies.
However, immediately after Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang were ready to make a movie, and the news that they had been to Hantang Media reached the senior management of major companies, and the major companies also had ideas in their hearts.
......
Huayi Brothers Group.
Wang Zhongjun asked Wang Zhonglei on the other side, "Zhonglei, are you sure?"
Wang Zhonglei nodded and said, "I asked Song Ze before, the cost of Wang Baoqiang's new film is about 70 million, and he wants to go to Yindu to shoot, and Tang An agreed to half of the investment." The specific investment of Huang Bo's films is not known yet, but it should be similar, after all, they are all the first movies. ”
In the entertainment industry, as long as it is not a particularly confidential thing, it is easy to know, not to mention that some people do not plan to keep it secret at all.
Song Ze turned out to be Huayi's person, and this time he may have wanted to sell at a price, Wang Zhonglei personally asked him out, and he basically said what he knew.
Nowadays, all of them have succeeded in becoming directors across industries, and they are not ordinary successes, and the box office is higher than those big directors in the past.
This time, Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, two stars with super fame and high audience popularity, are preparing to become directors to make movies, which is an excellent opportunity for any company.
With the fame of the two of them, as long as the cost is not too high, it is basically a profitable business.
"Big brother, this is a good opportunity, if the films of the two directors of the two of them can sell as well as Zhao Wei and Deng Chao, then as long as they win over the two of them, they can support half a year's performance. Wang Zhonglei said with some excitement.
The older generation of big directors are tepid at the box office, and the new generation of Li Hantang accounts for half of them, and Zhao Wei is a shareholder of Ahri Pictures, Guo Jinming cooperates with Lay's, Han Han cooperates with Bernard, and none of them are left to Huayi.
It's not for nothing, after Teng Huatao's "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" was a big hit, it was like the rise of a new director.
Then, there is no then.
Although the threshold for directors has been lowered, anyone can do it, but Zhao Wei, Deng Chao, Guo Jinming, and Han Han are not comparable to their fame.
However, some celebrities are very famous on the Internet, and they are searched every now and then.
But that kind of fame is useless, it's like a bunch of bubbles, it bursts when you poke it, and major companies are not stupid, and it is impossible to go to them to be directors.
has been popular for more than ten years, and it has to be down-to-earth, and the audience must be good, and there are not many people who meet the conditions among these actors in China.
Zhang Ziyi is famous enough to be called an international chapter, but between him, Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo, whose movie is the audience more willing to watch?
The obvious.
These two are the kind of people who have been popular for more than ten years, are particularly down-to-earth, have a good audience, and are both good at comedy genres.
It's just the perfect candidate, the second Xu Zheng.
Wang Zhongjun doesn't know that although he is working on the de-filmization of Huayi, focusing more on peripheral development and investment, he has not let go of film and television production and distribution, after all, the future of the other side is uncertain.
After deciding it, Wang Zhongjun immediately said, "Zhonglei, you go to contact Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, at least you have to win one of them, no matter how high the price is!"
"Big brother, don't worry, we Huayi want money and money, resources and resources, Wang Bo is not easy to say, but Wang Baoqiang will definitely be able to take it down. Wang Zhonglei said confidently.
I just met Song Ze in the morning, and the other party was able to reveal so easily that Wang Baoqiang was preparing to make a movie, and even the approximate investment cost was said, and the intention was obvious.
Moreover, Song Ze and Wang Baoqiang used to be Huayi's people, and the two sides broke up peacefully, and like Li Binbin and Wang Xiaoming, they have had some cooperation since then.
Breaking up is not necessarily an enemy, among these people who Hua Yi went out, that is, Tang An, and the two Deng Chao and Hua Yi that he took away are not very good.
Fan Binbin, who left Huayi and joined Berner before, was similar at first, but Fan Binbin stayed in Berner for a while, and after connecting several movies, he reported to Hengda's thigh.
And Huayi is cooperating with Hengda on a live entertainment project worth tens of billions, and now the two sides laughed again.
......
Not only Huayi, but also large companies such as Wanda, Bernard, Guangxian, Lay's, Ahri, and Tengxun all have the idea of cutting off their beards.
Wanda cooperates with Xu Ke and Cheng Long, although Chen Shicheng is a big seller in Virgo, but there is more or less credit for TV dramas, and the future is unknown.
Moreover, Xu Ke is left and right, one time he cooperates with Huayi, and the other he cooperates with Berna, and Cheng Long is the same, he is not really bound to a company.
In addition to Xu Ke and several Xiangjiang directors, although there is also a Han Han, in the past few years of listing on the US stock market, he has perfectly missed the golden age of the development of the domestic film market, and he has to catch up.
Lay's is a newcomer, how much oil Zhang Yimou still has to wait for the release of "The Great Wall", Guo Jinming's reputation is rotten, and it is difficult to say after the end of the "Small Times" series.
As for Ah Tanuki and Fuji Xun, it can be said that they lack everything.
