The entertainment industry in September tends to be flat, and the heat of the summer events has also dissipated, after all, the masses in this era are forgetful.

That is, Xie Tingfeng and Wang Fei were photographed by the paparazzi kissing in the apartment, and news about the reunion of the two is not uncommon.

For more than ten years, the three of them have broken up, reunited, broken up, married, and divorced, and it seems that they are going to get back together again this time.

However, the headline of the day was indeed the news of the official launch of Tang An's "Operation Red Sea", based on Tang An's current fame, and an excellent movie every year, plus proper publicity, unless it is an explosive event, it is enough to suppress any entertainment news.

And Tang An's words at the press conference were also reprinted by the media, attracting the attention of the masses.

"Speaking of the evacuation operation, if you shoot the army going to Africa, you will definitely have to hide your identity, and you won't make much action, there should be no big war scenes. ”

"That's for sure, the small force doesn't show the number, doesn't wear military uniforms, and the action is okay, but the large force is sensitive when it appears in other countries, don't think about the big scene. ”

"A movie is a movie, it doesn't matter if it's exaggerated, just look good, didn't the Kremlin be blown up in "Mission Impossible". ”

Looking carefully at what Tang An said at the press conference, he said that there will definitely be a lot of war scenes to open up a safe way home for compatriots with strong ships and sharp guns. ”

"I hope Tang An will let go a little bit this time, the background of "Wolf Warrior" is at the border, which is a bit restrictive, otherwise it will definitely be more enjoyable. ”

......

"Operation Red Sea" has become the most widely discussed movie on the Internet at present, and even "Heart Flower Road", which will be released in less than a month, has begun to be promoted, and with Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, and Huang Bo Iron Triangle, it cannot cover the light of "Operation Red Sea".

Tang An's movie has started filming, and it has been prepared for a year before, and there is plenty of time, and there is no problem in catching up with next year's summer file.

At this time, the major companies that originally had a glimmer of hope have determined the schedules of their own movies.

On Wanda's side, Jiang Defu and Yu Dong and Jiang Zhiqiang decided to release "Monster Hunt" in mid-to-late July next year.

changed the actor and added an additional investment of 70 or 80 million, and the total investment has reached 250 million.

Although the crew once held a press conference to criticize Ke Zhendong in a high-profile manner, they announced the termination of the contract with him in the shortest possible time, which made the masses very satisfied and eliminated some of the negative impact.

But the investment of up to 250 million yuan has left them with no choice, so they can only choose the most popular schedule, either the summer season, or the Chinese New Year or Spring Festival.

But the Spring Festival stalls are too late, the cycle is not short, and it has dragged on for more than half a year when such a thing happens, and if it drags on, the pressure to return to the cost will be greater.

And the summer file is now fully capable of accommodating three or four blockbusters, and if other companies are afraid of "Operation Red Sea" to adjust the file, "Monster Hunt" can still pick up a bargain.

I think that others dare not compete with Tang An, avoid the summer file, and then pick up a leak by themselves, after all, in addition to the 2.4 billion of "Mysterious Superstar" this year, there is also a 1.7 billion "Transformers 4", the market is big enough.

Xinli Media's "Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain" is also scheduled for the summer, but now there is no Xinli Media, which was acquired by Penguin Films.

Regarding the scheduled summer, Penguin Film and Television CEO Sun Huaizhong also asked Chen Kaige's opinion.

After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and most of the directors with box office appeal now cooperate with other companies, and it is too difficult for them to dig one up.

What's more, Brother Chen Kai is also a former top director, and it is an exaggeration to say that he is a household name, but as long as he is a frequent moviegoer, he knows this name.

Now Brother Chen Kai has pounced on a few films in a row, and the reputation is not very good, but as long as one of them sells well, it will be able to turn over immediately.

Sun Huaizhong gave Chen Kaige enough face and came to ask his opinion in person.

In this regard, Chen Kaige couldn't help but feel a little proud.

The vice president of Tangtang Tengxun and the CEO of Penguin Film and Television personally came to ask him for ideas, which proves his status in the circle.

"Mr. Sun, the schedule in July is a little crowded, right?" said Brother Chen Kai with some hesitation.

To be honest, Brother Chen Kai is not like he is facing "Operation Red Sea" head-on in the summer file.

If it was ten years ago, he would definitely not be afraid of anyone, but he has been failing since "Wuji", and he has long lost his original arrogance.

Even if he put a lot of effort into "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", he has no confidence that he can win Tang An's movie, and if he can get a billion box office, it will be considered a success.

And he didn't want to lose to Tang An again, he was still the kind who had no power to fight back.

"The Legend of the Demon Cat" is his hole card, this fantasy blockbuster that has been poured into many years of hard work, he is confident that he can touch any film and bring himself back to the top.

Sun Huaizhong explained, ""Operation Red Sea" will basically not change when it is released in the summer, and there will definitely be films from other companies that will skip gears, the competition is relatively not so big, and there should be no popular Hollywood blockbusters next summer, which is an opportunity." ”

Sun Huaizhong said the word "escape", and the somewhat sensitive Chen Kaige thought that Sun Huaizhong was talking about himself, and he was secretly a little unhappy in his heart.

However, he didn't let outsiders think that he was afraid of Tang An, so he said, "I'm also worried that there will be too many movies released in the summer file, and both sides will lose, since this is the case, it doesn't hurt to release it in July, Mr. Sun, you can arrange it." ”

......

With the same idea of picking up leaks, you all ran away and vacated the market, so I have to do the opposite and release it in the summer.

Movies such as "Small Times 4", "Gardenia Blossom", "The Woman of the Dynasty: Yang Guifei", and "Pancake Man" are tentatively scheduled to be released in the summer.

Anyway, Hollywood blockbusters are no longer popular, and other films are also average.

China Film Co., Ltd., Kang Pei and Shi Jianxiang also mentioned Tang An's new film when talking about the project "The Big Bombing" between the two sides.

Shi Jianxiang said, ""The Big Bombing" and "Operation Red Sea" are both military war movies, maybe we can borrow Tang An's east wind and wait for the release of "Operation Red Sea" to do bundled marketing with "The Big Bombing". ”

"It does. ”

Compeze nodded, but said, "It's just that "Operation Red Sea" is a modern military film, and there is still a difference. ”

Shi Jianxiang said with a smile, "The movie can make certain changes, "Operation Red Sea" is not an evacuation and rescue operation, and "The Big Bombing" can also focus on rescue. ”

Compeq was a little surprised, in order to gain popularity, he changed the theme of the movie, which is also rare.

However, this 80 million investment movie was originally going to run aground, and it was Shi Jianxiang's additional investment, which cost more than 300 million yuan, and spent a lot of money to invite a group of celebrities to come over

Kang Pei didn't know what Shi Jianxiang would do so frustratedly, he thought that he was just using his P2P platform to make a fortune in the name of the movie.

Invest 300 million, up to 200 million, that is, the main investor of the project, it is not strange to ask for a change in the script, it is not uncommon in the circle, and it is the uncle who gives the money.

"Okay, communicate with the screenwriter and move the theme a little bit towards rescue. Compex nodded.

"But I have to ask Kang Dong to help me more with the promotion of the movie, and next year I plan to hold a film festival in Los Angeles to promote "The Big Bombing", and Kang Dong has to attend. ”

"Holding a film festival?" Compeq was a little puzzled.

"Just find a venue, choose a nice name, just register, there's no trouble in this regard, I've got people ready." Shi Jianxiang said.

Isn't this the pheasant award that he spent money on, Kang Pei was a little disdainful, but it was also for the promotion of the movie, and after thinking about it, he agreed to send someone to go when the time came.

He definitely won't go himself, he can't afford to lose that person.

In recent years, foreign film festivals have been forced to be high, and a pheasant award can also blow to the sky, sometimes it has a greater effect than winning the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers in the mainland.

Of course, you still have to do a good job of marketing, otherwise even if you win the awards of the Venice and Berlin film festivals, it will not be of much use if you don't promote it well.
