Chapter 105: Nomination is on fire
The timing of Lu Lin's revelation was very coincidental, it was when "The Alliance of the Heavenly Gods" was released, and it was also the time when the media reported on him the most intensively. "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" can't be described as a fire before it is broadcast, it is simply a name and it will become popular!
By the next day, the words "Houyi Shooting Day" topped the hot search list, and many netizens didn't know why, I don't know why these four words suddenly became popular.
Only after watching the entertainment news did I know that Longlin Film and Television should adapt and shoot "Houyi Shooting the Sun" based on the story background in the online novel "Buddha is the Way" to create a "Honghuang Movie Universe" belonging to the Chinese.
With the successive releases of Marvel superhero blockbusters, some Chinese people have gradually had a concept of the term "cinematic universe". But it will not be until the release of "Avengers 1" in 12 years and the box office of more than 500 million in the mainland will the concept of "cinematic universe" be completely detonated.
But in all fairness, although Marvel's superhero blockbusters are famous around the world and have swept countless box offices, their results in China are not against the sky.
Among the five superhero independent films in the first phase, only "Iron Man 2" won 170 million, and the rest did not exceed 100 million. And the annual ranking of these five films in China is outside the top ten. "Avengers", which was released in 12 years, ranked sixth in China in the year, below "Life of Pi".
and "Avengers 3", known as "Ten Years of Layout, One Battle at the Peak", ranked below "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and above "Monster Hunt 2" with a score of 2.39 billion. One more thing to mention is that the Douban score of "Monster Hunt 2" is only 5, and the negative reviews are flooding.
Although many netizens still can't understand the "Flood Movie Universe" mentioned by the media, it does not prevent them from having great expectations for Lu Lin's new film. The success of the two 3D special effects blockbusters has allowed Lu Lin to establish a good reputation in the hearts of the audience, and this is how the box office appeal comes from.
If you want to talk about today's Chinese film market, I am afraid that Lu Lin will not be in the top ten among the big directors. But when it comes to box office appeal, that's the proper first. The total box office of the two movies exceeded 3 billion, which is the best proof of this.
Now "The Alliance of the Gods" is still in full swing, although it has dropped a lot on weekdays, but it also has a box office of 50 or 60 million per day. Although a total of eight films were released on Thursday and Friday, they were all some unknown films, and the nominations counted the number of words.
And "The Alliance of the Gods" has reached 1.217 billion at the cumulative box office in two full weeks after its release, surpassing "Transformers 3" released in July, temporarily ranking second in the annual box office in 11 years.
Lu Lin was calm about this achievement, but the media was boiling. directs two blockbusters a year, one over 2 billion, and one over 1 billion but in theaters. Winning the first and second of the annual box office rankings, is this to replicate the miracle of the star master?
In 92, because Xing Ye's works accounted for seven of the top 15 grossing films in Hong Kong that year, and the top five were taken, this year was called "Zhou Xingchi Year" by the film industry.
Although Lu Lin only has two films now, the box office results are against the sky! Some media even commented that if Lu Lin can make another film that exceeds one billion yuan and win the top three, he can call the Chinese film industry in the past 11 years the "Year of Lu Lin".
Some netizens even came up with the idea of letting Lu Lin make a martial arts film in a month and release it before December, and fans will definitely support him and help him complete the feat of winning the top three.
Netizens and the media are carnivaling, but Lu Lin is working in an orderly manner. Although I was secretly happy in my heart, I didn't show it on my face. However, the actors in the crew of "Dou Po" couldn't sit still and wanted to ask about the project establishment and casting of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun".
Han Dongjun is better, although he is not very old, but his years of experience in studying abroad have made him have a maturity that is not commensurate with his age. filmed diligently every day, endured hardships and stood hard work, and I didn't see any other ideas.
It's these actresses who feel like grass has grown in their hearts. The few people selected by Lu Lin are not bad in another time and space, and they are not fuel-efficient lamps. watched "Buddha Book" overnight, and it was clear which of the twelve ancestors and witches was a woman.
Even if you haven't watched "Buddha Book", you know Nuwa and Chang'e! As Hou Yi's wife, Chang'e must have a lot of scenes.
After filming that night, Gu Li Nazha proposed to go out to eat hot pot to improve, and Tang Yan, Tong Liya, and Xu Dongdong responded one after another. Although Yu Feihong does not covet the role of the new film, she does not refuse to improve the food.
After a few people discussed, they came to find Lu Lin together and said that they would invite him out to eat hot pot, and Lu Lin responded and asked his assistant Gao Wen to call Han Dongjun.
Then a group of eight people drove two cars to the front of the Donglai Shun Huairou store. After entering the door, I asked for a private room, ordered a lot of dishes and wine, and after the water boiled, I poured meat into it, and then feasted.
In the middle of October, the weather turned cooler, and it was quite delicious to come out at night to eat shabu mutton. However, most of the people here are drunkards, who do not mean to drink, but only play roles in new films.
Gu Li Nazha couldn't hold her breath and took the lead in asking about "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun". Lu Lin smiled and took a bite of mutton before saying: "The script hasn't been changed yet, how can the casting be so fast!" Everyone knew that they were eager, and a few of them had slightly red cheeks, and they didn't know whether they were hot or ashamed.
Lu Lin will not look down on someone because of this, and it is not a shame to actively strive for film resources. When "Thor" was casting, all actors in the British and American film industry who were more than 1.8 meters tall and fluent in English were eager to audition. Shake Sen just went to audition for Thor and then got Loki's role.
"When the script is changed, there will be an open casting after the official project is established, and then you can audition if you want to participate, now let's shoot well!"
When the girls heard this, they had to put away their thoughts for the time being. Unexpectedly, when he went back after dinner, Jia Yanhai of Wanda Film and Television actually called.
At the beginning, because the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" project ran aground and Song Ge ran away, Lao Jia resented Lu Lin for a while, even to the point of sneering in public.
"Hey, Director Lu, hello, congratulations, "The Alliance of the Heavenly Gods" is a big hit at the box office!" Lao Jia's tone was very polite.
Lu Lin guessed without him saying it, and said with a smile: "Xie Jia is always auspicious, is there something to call me today?"
Jia Yanhai didn't know how to open his mouth, and when he saw Lu Lin taking the initiative to mention this stubble, he smiled and said, "Something, I heard that Director Lu is going to shoot "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun"?"
Lu Lin said: "Well, there is this idea!"
Jia Yanhai said: "We want to participate in the investment of Wanda Pictures, I don't know if Lu Daohuan welcomes it?"
Lu Lin smiled and said, "Wan Da is willing to support my field, so he is naturally welcome." I'm afraid that your money will not be easy to get, so I have to decide the hostess!"
