In fact, for the work "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", Lu Lin has a certain amount of pressure. After all, unlike films such as "The Flood Wilderness" and "Three-Body Problem", which were first moved to the big screen, the story of Journey to the West is too familiar to the audience, and the more famous he is, the audience will also raise their standards, and it is really easy to smash the signboard if you are not careful.

It is to strive for perfection in many aspects such as plots and special effects, and to scrutinize and revise many times. Anyway, he is in control of the content of the whole film, and it is not uncommon for the same shooting material to be cut into different styles of films.

However, when the whole film finally passed the review, and the overseas distribution was negotiated, and the dubbed versions of various countries began, the content could no longer be modified, and all that could be done was to increase marketing and publicity, and strive to achieve a high box office in the first three days. And word of mouth can reach the previous level, and the box office will not be too bad.

After all, the Chinese film market is an existence where bad movies can deceive the box office, and with Lu Lin's reputation accumulated over the years, unless there is an avalanche of word of mouth, there is no possibility that the box office will be too bad. is like Xing Ye's "The King of New Comedy", with an investment of less than 50 million, won a box office of 620 million, and finally made a lot of money. Not to mention the revenue from paying for playback on video sites.

Longlin Pictures has never doubted the profitability of "Havoc in Heaven".

The same is true in the industry, no one is not optimistic about Longlin Pictures' fourth special effects blockbuster this year, and what is uncertain is only the question of where the box office of Longlin's version of Havoc in Heaven can go. Is it to refresh the domestic record of Lu Lin's "Lich War", or to surpass "Wolf Warrior 2".

The people of Longlin Pictures, as well as Jing Yan and others, have asked this question. Lu Lin said in his heart: "I really think I am a god, I say as much as I want!"

One more thing to mention is that before the release of "Wolf Warrior 2", Wu Jing was more apprehensive, talked to Lu Lin about box office problems, and made bets with Jing Yan and Lu Lin. Lu Lin said that the box office can exceed 5 billion, and if it really wants to surpass, Wu Jing will send Jing Yan a million-level sports car.

And when the cumulative box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeded 5 billion, Wu Jing bought a Ferrari 488 for Jing Yan from his little savings left, all of which fell to more than 4 million. It is estimated that Wu Jing is not so reluctant to his daughter-in-law.

Betting is one thing, the most important thing is that during the preparation of the two "Wolf Warriors", Lu Lin repeatedly mentioned that Wu Jing should invest according to the upper limit of the funds he can use, and the rest of Longlin Pictures will make up for it. Wu Jing did so, and now he has become a local tyrant. Although the money was a little painful, it was still spent generously.

then asked in a half-joking tone, how much box office can Longlin's version of "Havoc in Heaven" have.

Lu Lin said vaguely: "Actually, the box office is a thing, don't care too much." Anyway, I can't lose anything, the key is to shoot my own favorite works!"

Wu Jing said: The more successful you are, the more you will pretend to be forced, the repentance of Ahri Jackma, the beauty of his wife, Liu Qiaodong, Wang Wanlin, and you, the director with the highest cumulative box office in China, actually began to care about the box office!"

Lu Lin said: "It is precisely because it is already the highest cumulative box office in China, so I can't always mention it, celebrities, it always has to be a little forced!"

"It's strange that I believe you!" Wu Jing laughed dryly, and then said: "By the way, my other recent work has stopped, just wait for the promotion of the new film, where do we start first!"

"Let's start with the trailer press conference on the 24th!"

"And then start the national roadshow?"

"No!" Lu Lin shook his head, "I don't plan to play the feature film in advance this time!"

Wu Jing was a little surprised, this was different from Lu Lin's previous promotion of the new film, "What, suddenly changed the routine?"

"I'm afraid of spoilers, the audience is too familiar with the section of "Havoc in Heaven", and it is too difficult to come up with something new, of course it has to be kept secret!"

In fact, during the filming of the film, there were already various secrets. It's just that the premiere of this blockbuster of Longlin Pictures has become a rare visual feast in the Chinese film industry, and countless loyal fans who look forward to watching the premiere in the stadium every year suddenly learned that they can't go to the premiere before the release, I'm afraid that many people will be very disappointed!

"I'm afraid that your fans will rebel then!" Wu Jing smiled and reminded kindly.

Lu Lin was also a little smacked when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "It's also a helpless thing!"

On the 24th, Longlin Pictures will hold a new film press conference of "Havoc in Heaven" in a star-rated hotel near the company, with Lu Lin, Wu Jing, Ge You, Wang Huichun, Jiao Anjun, Song Zhuer and others present.

Of course, there are more than these celebrities involved, but Lu Lin didn't want to make the press conference too big, so he didn't call too many people over. Otherwise, when the reporter asked, the actors didn't know, and they couldn't say this, and the scene that couldn't be said was quite embarrassing.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the host came to the stage to give a speech, and then Lu Lin came on the stage. Looking down, it was naturally a gathering of media, and a group of reporters were crowded with eager eyes.

In the past two years, Lu Lin has mainly taken a high and cold style, and he does not say witty words to enliven the scene, and directly asks questions.

"Hello Director Lu, now this year's Chinese movies are called the Year of Longlin on the Internet, and the mainland box office of the three blockbusters has reached 15 billion. So what do you think "Havoc in Heaven" can reproduce the glory of the previous movies and achieve the feat of more than 20 billion in four films?" The reporter from Penguin Entertainment asked the question, and the others had an expectant expression, waiting for Lu Lin's answer.

"The title of Long Linnian is a bit too much. In fact, we just try our best to do a good job in every film, and the results at this moment are the love of the audience. As for whether the box office of "Havoc in Heaven" can break my own personal record of more than 5 billion, my opinion is very promising.

Because of this one, whether it is the plot or special effects, compared with the Journey to the West film and television works that everyone has seen in the past, it can be said that it is a comprehensive upgrade, and we do not want to highlight the protagonist status of Sun Wukong, and weaken the strength of other immortals. Every picture and every detail is very careful. I believe that the vast majority of people who have feelings for Journey to the West will not be disappointed after watching this movie.

As for some people who like to pick bones in eggs, they can't be forced. ”

Most of the reporters on the scene laughed dryly, and then someone asked another question, but it was New Wolf Entertainment, "Hello Director Lu, there have been rumors before, your "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", there is a major breakthrough in the plot, what is so special, can you reveal it here?"

Lu Lin said into the microphone: "I want to say sorry to many audience friends, that is, the plot of the new film needs to be kept secret for the time being!"

"Do you want to keep it a secret until when, premiere?"

"The moment of the official release!"
