Chapter 798: Another Famous Guide Has Fallen?
"Director Wu, you also know the current situation, although the one you invested in took a part of the minimum fee, plus overseas copyrights, and some made money, and only I lost, but the movie failed, and the impact on you will not be less than mine, this time I lost a part, and the next movie can be earned, what about you, the failure of the blockbuster with an investment of 400 million, who will dare to give you such a high investment in the future, everything is for the box office, I hope you can understand. ”
Wu Yusen was reluctant to go to Tang An to die, and Zhang Zhaoqing sincerely persuaded him here.
Anyway, the next one still needs Wu Yusen's cooperation and publicity, and in order to attract audiences and exposure, he has to be hyped up, as a director and the biggest name in the whole movie, he is indispensable.
In order to maximize the loss loss, Zhang Zhao didn't care about letting Wu Yusen "send him to death", anyway, there must be no hope for it to be released on an ordinary schedule next year, it is better to give it a go, and it will not be worse, if the effect is good, you can pick up a leak and drink the soup, maybe you can recover the loss.
Wang Zhongjun and Kang Pei have no objections, it stands to reason that the release date is generally arranged by the distributor, and Zhang Zhao's statement also moved them.
The main investors have made a decision, and Wu Yusen has to accept it even if he is unwilling.
For so many years, there has never been a time when he has been persecuted like today, a dignified director, in the face of three large companies, has no right to speak at all, which makes Wu Yusen feel unprecedented grievance!
Leaving with indignation, Wu Yusen secretly swore an oath.
"When my next movie is successful, I'm going to have you all come and beg me!"
......
The Lunar New Year is still going on as usual, and since Saturday afternoon, a considerable part of the coverage of "The Peace Wheel" has quietly changed to praise for the film's war scenes.
"The frontal battlefield of "Taiping Wheel" is fierce, comparable to any European and American blockbuster!"
""Taiping Wheel" - an epic war blockbuster, the war scenes far exceed any previous war movie!"
"A milestone of real domestic films, perfectly restoring the ...... of that era"
The efficiency is also fast, and news and movie reviews are rushed out.
The sudden change in the style of painting made netizens baffled.
Isn't it a disaster romance movie, when did it become a war movie again, isn't this a movie?
The audience didn't know the situation, so they wanted to figure it out, and for a while, there were more news and posts about "Taiping Wheel".
And in the afternoon, Wu Yusen also kept saying in an interview how difficult it is to make this war movie, what to learn from the model of Hollywood blockbusters, restore real history and so on.
Immediately afterwards, a reporter talked about Tang An's new film "Operation Red Sea" according to the plan, which is also a war movie.
"War films are still a blank in domestic commercial films, and I'm glad that someone has the same courage to shoot this genre as I do......"
"Actually, I'm also quite worried that Director Tang will make a good war movie into an action movie or a spy movie, which will disappoint me too much, war movies are not so easy to make. ”
......
These words have been rendered by the media, and one by one with the hype of the water army, the Internet seems to have begun to argue about which is the better war movie between Wu Yusen's "Taiping Wheel" and the upcoming "Operation Red Sea".
Although discerning people believe in Tang An more, a large number of media, self-media, and water armies are praising the war scenes of "Taiping Wheel" everywhere, intentionally or unintentionally belittling and doubting Tang An's new film, so that Tang An's fans and passers-by can't help but reason with these water army.
At least the heat is there and the purpose has been achieved.
However, it did not have much effect on the box office, and in the next two days, "Taiping Wheel" got 17 million and 14 million respectively, and the total box office in four days was 83 million, not even 100 million.
The total box office of "Detective Chinatown 2" reached 512 million in the second week, although it was lower than the first week, but the total box office has broken through the billion mark, as high as 1.143 billion!
The fight on the street of "Taiping Wheel" made "Detective Chinatown 2" have no opponents, and continued to sweep the Chinese New Year stalls with an invincible attitude.
And the box office of "The Year in a Hurry" was also very good, getting 240 million in three days, far exceeding "Taiping Wheel", which was released one day earlier, which made Kang Pei, who had not put "The Year in a Hurry" in his eyes before, very unhappy.
The box office of "The Best Life of a Coquettish Woman" also reached 170 million, which is not rough for a small-budget movie.
......
Another week later, "Detective Chinatown 2" got 231 million this week, with a total box office of 1.374 billion.
"The Year in a Hurry" got 270 million in the second week, and the total box office in ten days was 510 million.
"Taiping Wheel" may have had an effect on marketing, the water army and the audience quarreled quite fiercely, and most of the audience who watched the movie thought it was a bad movie.
Whether it is a war movie, a romance movie, or a disaster movie, it can be described as a bad movie.
is such a bad movie, and it was so blown that it was compared with Tang An's new film, and many viewers couldn't help but spray.
This is also what Zhang Zhao wants to see, no matter what, as long as there is popularity, at least it can attract some curious audiences to go into the cinema to see where this war drama is so good.
A few days before the second week of "Taiping Wheel", the decline was stopped, but with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, no matter how much it operated, it couldn't hold back.
got 58 million in the second week, and the total box office was only 141 million in the two weeks after its release.
The most watched movie this week is the newly released "One Step Away", and Jiang Wen's new film is only enough to attract audiences.
93 million on the first day, almost failed to break 100 million, and a total of 378 million in the first four days.
Although it is not like those popular models, it often breaks 100 million on the first day, but this data is enough to rank in the forefront of the year.
However, the reputation of the movie is polarized, people who think it is bad sneer at it and declare that Jiang Wenjiang Lang is talented, and those who think it is good are amazed by it and directly rated it as a benchmark in the film industry.
Fans are also divided into Tingjiang faction and Jetjiang faction, Tingjiang faction said that this is the status quo of domestic fans, and this is the status quo of domestic social wisdom. Ma will be shot by public opinion on the day of the day, but Jiang Wen's movie will not die in the noise and saliva of public opinion.
The Jet River faction felt that the movie was very boring, saying that the first third listened to the musical and watched the thighs, the middle third watched the animated drama and felt the special effects, and the second third was watching the stage play to figure out the ending.
Jiang Wen's movies are niche, those who like it, and look down on those who don't like it, not only in the film circle, but also in any cultural circle.
However, poor box office is a reality, 378 million in the first week is good, even for a billion guarantee, as long as the trend is good, this data is acceptable.
However, on the first working day of the next day, the guarantee party Ahri Pictures was directly confused.
24 million!
There are only 24 million in a single day, and there are still 86 million box office yesterday, that is, on Sunday.
On the first working day, the drop was as high as 72%, which is a rarity.
You know, even the first working day of "Taiping Wheel" fell by only 60%.
Although the box office was also very low at that time because of "Taiping Wheel", the 72% decline was there, and it can be said that no commercial blockbuster can have such a miserable trend.
If this trend is maintained in the future, one billion is not to think about it, seven or eight billion is a big problem.
Netizens were stunned, insiders were also stunned, investor Wanda was stunned, and Ah Li, who won this movie at the cost of a billion guarantees, was even more confused.
Could it be that after Wu Yusen, there is a famous director who is about to fall?
