Chapter 189: 40 Million in a Single Day (2/6)

"People in Embarrassment" will be released on March 8, and "Tangshan Earthquake" will start filming on March 16, leaving little time for Zhang Junsheng!

And purely from the perspective of celebrity positions, Wang Baoqiang, Ren Circle, including Li Lianhua are not particularly appealing actors, and the most appealing part of the entire "People in Embarrassment" crew has to be Zhang Junsheng!

After returning to Beijing, Zhang Junsheng immediately joined the crew and started the publicity campaign in the afternoon of the same day.

……

Beijing media conference.

"Director Zhang, many people think that a movie like "People in Embarrassment" is too simple, and it doesn't meet the level of you, the Oscar-winning director..."

Zhang Junsheng smiled and waved his hand: ""People in Embarrassment" won a box office result of 29 million on the first day with zero publicity, I think this is the hope of Chinese films, and the box office of "Avatar" proves that the audience loves to watch movies and is willing to go to the cinema to watch movies!"

"Most audiences watch movies to relax, so movies should be entertaining, interesting, and talk about art on the basis of entertainment. I believe that as long as the directors make interesting stories and wonderful stories, more and more audiences will go to the theater to watch Chinese movies, and Chinese films will become more and more prosperous!"

""People in Embarrassment" is a very interesting movie, in fact, in addition to the real big production, most of the time I think about how to make the movie interesting, as for whether it is up to standard, I think the box office will tell you the answer!"

This one is for sure!

When a group of film critics are filming and evaluating "People in Embarrassment", they will add a sentence 'It's too entertaining, not at all like the work made by the best director!'

It seems that it is a sin for Zhang Junsheng not to go in the direction of humanity and society!

Our group of film critics are still immersed in the last century!

For more than 30 years since the mid-80s, the standard line of Chinese cinema was not in China, but in Berlin, Cannes, Venice, and Los Angeles.

Only by photographing a picture of China that is in low spirits, despicable, socially impetuous, dark and incompetent can he be awarded the Medal of Art.

Self-denial and portraying the West as spiritual redeemers, catering to the artistic standards of Berlin, Cannes, Venice, and Los Angeles will help the West become comfortable with China's accusations of "human rights".

The kneeling ones identify with and accept the idea that the image of China and the Chinese should look like this in the film:

desolate and backward mountain villages;

ignorant people;

numb and depraved human nature;

Spooky and perverted sex symbols...

This is a good movie in their eyes!

To put it bluntly, I have Stockholm syndrome, I am used to kneeling and licking, I am used to eating while kneeling, let Ya stand up and be a man, eat big white rice normally, Ya is not used to it, and even panicked so much that she wants to eat on her knees like herself.

Zhang Junsheng won the Oscar for Best Director, and his professionalism can't be questioned, so he is questioning the audience...

Unexpectedly, Zhang Junsheng actually said, 'I wasn't ready to go in the direction of depth at the beginning of "People in Embarrassment", it's just a comedy movie, everyone laughs after watching it, and it's over!'

"You said before, why are you so sure that the box office of "People in Embarrassment" can reach 500 million?"

"Because it's me!"

Zhang Junsheng is very confident...

added: "In fact, comedy is more restricted by national boundaries and culture, Chinese comedy is more down-to-earth and closer to the audience, while Hollywood movies can't do this!

"People in Embarrassment" has a good reputation, and many people praise 'This is the best comedy movie in ten years!'

The audience's word-of-mouth exploded, and the next thing is to harvest the box office...

To be honest, if there is no "Avatar", Zhang Junsheng is really sure to make "People in Embarrassment" more than 800 million!

……

After the media conference in Beijing, the crew of "People in Embarrassment" took a plane to Songjiang that night...

The interview with "Triptych" was conducted on the plane.

"Cinema is, of course, an art. ”

"Simply using the box office to measure the quality will be scolded by colleagues for being too coppery, but under the current conditions of China's film market, attaching importance to the box office and the feelings of ordinary audiences is far more valuable than talking about art, because for so many years, countless film experts have almost 'talked' about Chinese films to death!"

"Art has become the best excuse for directors who don't want to be responsible for the audience to excuse themselves for their incompetence!"

"Ten years have passed since the new century, and the number of young directors who are good at 'speaking art' continues unabated, in a vicious circle with no market reference. Most of these young directors are becoming less and less able to make movies, and will only rely on some 'soul-touching' petty fights to gamble. I hate directors like this very much!"

"Movies should have a sense of realism, intimacy, and details of life. That's how it will be accepted by the audience!"

"Some people say, 'A good box office doesn't mean a good movie, and a really good movie will think about it after watching it.'" I think this kind of person has a sick brain, you don't even have an audience, what do you think about"

"How can celebrity salaries mention this issue"

"Are you saying that the leading actors of "People in Embarrassment" are not paid well"

“… That's the case, you can inquire, but for all movies produced by Yuehua, the salary of the leading actor will not be very high, and when the box office is released, we will make up the salary after the account sharing. ”

"Bao Qiang is of course a very good comedian, an actor like him is rare to see in a hundred years, he has his own comedic effect, just like Li Lianjie's martial arts, it has become a unique qualification that others can't imitate. Therefore, when they spread their wings and soar in the entertainment industry, although others envy their success, it is difficult to copy and learn. ”

"Of course he is not the kind of actor who can only giggle, in fact, I think he is an actor with very acting skills, he is the debut of "Blind Well", the best newcomer in the Golden Horse! Yuehua received a book called "Mr. Tree", which is very suitable for him..."

"The reason why I am looking for Ren Circle is because he is naturally opposed to Bao Qiang's image, which is very suitable for the setting of two male protagonists in comedy!"

"Brother Bo is because I want to add another line and add more jokes..."

"After "People Are Embarrassment", I will make another "People Are Embarrassed in Thailand", and when the IP of this series matures, I will hand it over to other directors. ”

"Don't worry, in fact, the genre of "People in Embarrassment" is especially suitable for making a series, and a road-style comedy is a matter of adding baggage to it!"

After almost an hour, the interview was finally over, and the reporter shook hands with Zhang Junsheng with a smile: "Thank you Director Zhang for accepting the interview, and I wish "People in Embarrassment" a good box office!"

"Thank you..."

Is the box office success of "People in Embarrassment".

Almost, anyway, after the promotion was started, the box office of "People in Embarrassment" on the second day had risen to 39 million in a single day, 10 million more than on the first day!

Today, I just want to sprint to 40 million...
