Chapter 167: "Red Cliff" Released (4/6)

The goal of the project "Red Cliff" is very clear, that is, to break the box office record that "Titanic" has occupied for ten years!

China Film has worked hard in publicity, and in the past month, they have really mobilized all the forces that can be mobilized!

Almost all propaganda channels have not been spared!

"Red Cliff" was released, and "Crazy Stone", which was being screened, was directly cut by half of the film schedule...

By the way, "Red Cliff" also cooperated with Eyesight to watch a blockbuster movie on 9.9...

At the premiere ceremony, Zhang Junsheng stepped on the red carpet with Liu Sisi, who was holding a white dress.

"Sword Rain" is about to start filming, Liu Sisi won Ye Feiqing, not only that, "Sword and Fairy III" is still in the late stage, and there are already several satellite TV bids, once these two dramas become famous, she will be the next object of the company's support...

Zhang Junsheng is determined to take her to see the world, and by the way, it is also a kind of propaganda!

"Zhang Junsheng!

The audience on both sides of the red carpet was excited, shouting Zhang Junsheng's name and shouting the slogan 'Junsheng Junsheng, life...'

Uh, didn't expect a rhyming word...

The media frantically followed the shutter, and the intense flash lit up half of the night sky.

“… You're so popular!"

"When "Sword and Fairy III" is broadcast, you will also have this kind of popularity. ”

"I'm just the female number three, where does the popularity come from?"

“… What's the hurry, didn't you get the two scripts of "Step by Step" and "Beauty Scheming"?"

Such a good book as "Beauty Scheming" was used on Lin Xinru, which was indeed a bit wasteful, so Yuehua found Yu Zheng and worked together to create this play.

At this time, Yu Zheng was not the Yu mother who would support whoever he wanted in later generations, he studied under Li Huimin, returned to Songjiang in 2002, and set up a studio by himself.

His skill points are more bizarre, originality is third-rate, plagiarism is second-rate, and patchwork is first-class.

Take a little here, take a little there, and you can save up a popular drama.

Relying on this ability, it gradually became popular in the industry, but the real fire had to wait until 2010's "Beauty Scheming" and 2011's "Palace".

The book of "Beauty Scheming" has been spelled out in 07, Lin Xinrut likes this kind of Mary Sue drama, and he produced it himself and starred in this drama, however, Yuehua forcibly inserted it, cut off the beard directly, and signed a contract for three TV series by the way, Yu Zheng of course wants to cooperate with a professional crew like Yuehua...

decisively passed Lin Xinru, an outdated actress...

……

Zhang Junsheng and Liu Sisi walked the red carpet, entered the auditorium, and sat down in the second row.

"Why do I think you're absent-minded?"

“… Oh, you see that?"

Zhang Junsheng smiled.

"I have a company in the United States that is going to release a new film today, and I'm waiting for a call..."

"Twilight" will be released on July 2nd!

There are no particularly favorable competitors in the same schedule, although there are three blockbusters, "Die Hard 4", "Raiders of the Lost Ark 4", and "The Amazing Hulk", but these films have a poor reputation and box office...

On July 18th, "Batman: The Dark Knight" will be released, so "Twilight" will only have a 15-day schedule...

A fan-oriented movie, "Twilight" will be difficult to expand the scale of release if it can't win a high box office on the first day, after all, the distribution capacity of the peak can only guarantee the opening of 2,000 theaters at most...

"What kind of movie?"

"Twilight", a vampire and werewolf story. ”

"The Vampire Diaries kind?"

"Yo, you still watch American dramas?"

“… They recommended it for me, and by the way, I heard that you were the writer of The Vampire Diaries?"

"Haha..."

Zhang Junsheng smiled and didn't answer, at this time, Hu Zongming and Han Shanping walked into the auditorium with the main creators of "Red Cliff", Liang Chaowei, Jin Chengwu, Lin Zhilin, Junqi Zhao, Zhang Zhen, Hu Jun, Zhang Fengyi, the entire crew was star-studded.

"Thank you all for coming to the premiere of "Red Cliff", the film cost ..."

Balabala said something, and then Han Shanping saw Zhang Junsheng, came over to say hello, patted Zhang Junsheng on the shoulder and said, "After watching the movie, tell me your thoughts, I'm looking forward to your opinion." ”

“… Good!"

Are you really looking forward to it?

Have you read today's newspaper?

Well, in addition to "Sanlian" and online reports, there are really few media that dare to report what Zhang Junsheng said...

……

"Red Cliff" (above), the story is exactly the same as Zhang Junsheng's memory.

Hu Zongming is quite reliable, although the rhythm of the story is not too tight, but the plot has not been changed in a mess.

You can bet ten yuan, and tomorrow the newspaper will publish a review of the movie, and someone will definitely say, "The scene is grand, and the fight is wonderful." "It's a victory!

It's like if you go on a blind date, before you go, the introducer said that the woman resembles a big power, and finally you go and take a look, and find that in addition to the skin color, gender is very similar...

Also, "Red Cliff" claims to have cost 120 million US dollars, but the filming of the scenery is small and the content is trivial, more like the Warring States period in Japan when 30,000 or 40,000 people fought.

So, there aren't many grand scenes under the camera, but always a lot of close-ups and close-ups, and no more than 100 people come and go.

Because of this, the generals are more like samurai, and have a lot of time to participate in tea ceremony ikebana judo, which explains why the film has the birth of a horse, the correction of a flute, and the fighting of two male jazz bassists.

Even when dealing with various parts, "Red Cliff" does not reflect the two most shocking characteristics of soldiers at all: speed and impact.

The infantry formation composed of a single layer of shields can actually stop the impact of Cao's heavy cavalry troops, and from this treatment method alone, we can see how absurd the director's perception of strength is.

And the generals actually responded to the enemy in the way of foot combat, which shows that this film has nothing to do with the ancient military at all, and is more like an ancient martial arts film.

What is the difference between this and "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng"?

There are more than a dozen soldiers in Kurosawa's movie, and a few guns can also be majestic!

Because the soldier's military appearance is neat, the military uniform is exquisite, and the running speed is fast, even an ordinary soldier has the ability to perform.

And the progress of "Red Cliff", which cost $120 million, only reflects the upper body of the soldier - this time, the soldier played by the extras finally has a helmet with a suitable head and a beautiful chest helmet...

The Three Kingdoms is a war led by a group of nobles and scholars, and directors from Hong Kong and Taiwan cannot show the bearing and elegance of Chinese aristocrats at all!

Cao Cao is the only character who barely passed the test; Liu Bei is simply a secretary of the anti-corruption bureau; Sun Quan is a big brother of Hong Kong businessmen and underworlds; Zhuge Liang, the embodiment of morality and wisdom in the hearts of Chinese, does not know what considerations must be added to add some "naughty elements";

The worst is Zhou Yu, Liang Chaowei may have just finished acting "Lust and Caution", and the expression of both men and women makes people feel that there may be a paper clip position at any time in the next second...

……

"Fanning so cold?"

"I need to be calm at all times..."

"I have a dream... This is my only dream, and it is the dream of all of us!"

"I dream of a day when the valleys will rise and the mountains will fall, and the bumpy and winding road will become a smooth road, and the holy light will be revealed and the world will be filled. "Okay, it's a string...

"I never gave up on my dreams!"

"Brother, smile, nothing can't get by. They love to see you laugh too!"

"If you know a little bit about everything, your life will be a little more colorful. ”

The scene was almost crazy with laughter...

Meng Meng was born...

Sister Chi Ling spoke: "The little guy hasn't named it yet." ”

Mr. Yi replied: "If it was born in Jingchu, it should have a Jingchu name, called Mengmeng, okay?"

Sister Chi Ling squatted down: "Meng Meng, Meng Meng, stand up..."

"Haha..."

Zhang Junsheng couldn't help laughing...

As soon as Sister Zhilin spoke up, she wanted to laugh!

Han Sanye, who was originally full of confidence in the movie and felt that he could surpass "Titanic", laughed again and again with the audience, his face first turned white, and then gradually turned black.

If "Red Cliff" is a comedy and there are so many laughs, it must be a good thing, but is "Red Cliff" a comedy?

Apparently not.

This reaction from the audience means that something is wrong with the movie.

At the end of the film screening, Hu Zongming took the main creator to the stage to communicate with the media and the audience.

His expression was also a little confused, and the audience's reaction was beyond his expectations, maybe he couldn't understand that his "Red Cliff" was obviously an epic war movie!

How could the audience be this reaction?

Han Sanye's face was already pale...

……

"What do you think?"

“… It's okay, it's just that the pace is too slow, and the audience probably doesn't like such a movie!"

"So..."Crazy Stone?"

"Don't worry, we have 30% of the film schedule, and for a while, China Film will not cut our film schedule!"

Liu Sisi was a little confused: "Why?"

“… I am a representative of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and a deputy to the National People's Congress, and he is afraid that I will propose that China Film has a monopoly!"

"Did the box office of "Twilight" come out?"

"How can it be so fast, jet lag!"

Of course, there is a sentence that Zhang Junsheng did not say, the midnight box office of "Twilight" has been released, $8.9 million...

This result is surprisingly good, and it directly climbed into the top ten at the box office at midnight!

It's enough to prove that the IP of "Twilight" can be operated!
