46. At the celebration banquet

In fact, the most fierce competition in the whole year of 2009 was in November, as the collection version of "Heaven and Earth Collision" + "Poseidon" + "The Day After Tomorrow", "2012" has won the box office champion of the month in every country and region in the world.

In addition, there are "Guinea Pig Agent", "Twilight", "Mulan", "District 9", and "My Tang Dynasty Brothers" will be released in a few days.

Compared with December, the pressure is much less, after all, it is a Chinese New Year file, not to let Hollywood get involved, at the beginning of the month, there was a "Jump Out", a small production comedy film on Hong Kong Island, followed by "Thorn Tomb", "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" and "Fengyun 2", it was only a few days after the release, and the bad reviews were overwhelming, and the movie score was all 4 or 5 points, Zhang Guoshi was grabbed by the media and fans and sprayed for a moment, and "October Siege" Although it was not muffled, it still made a fortune.

Of course, thieves not only eat meat, thieves will also be beaten, there are only so many people who go to the movies at this moment, if you grab a wave, then there will inevitably be one less wave next door.

No, "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" started a war of words with "October Siege", although the bigwigs disdain to tear up because of these things, but their subordinates will stir up the storm, and they don't know where the three guns fans got the wire report, and they were stunned to say that the box office of "October Siege" is 370 million to return to the cost, although Yu Dong said at the opening ceremony that he would invest 23 million US dollars, in fact, they are all fools and melon-eating people.

In addition, Bona and China Film each have a part of the cinema chain, which is equivalent to being both an investor and a theater holder, and there are many media groups among the partners of "October Siege", such as Tianyu, which is the spokesperson of Mango Channel, and several other stations such as Lychee Terrace and Modu Terrace have been mixed together, and in terms of publicity, "October Siege" costs half less than "Three Shots", in fact, 230 million has already saved the capital.

December 22, Imperial Capital, Hotel.

With a brilliant record and a tired body, the creators of "October Siege" finally gathered in the imperial capital again, and Boss Yu directly wrapped the first floor of the hotel.

A table was placed in the center of the venue, and the red cloth was covered with a long object, and the director Chen Desheng neatly removed the red cloth, as if the flag keeper raised the red flag at the flag-raising ceremony, and the "100 million" made of ice cubes stood impressively on the table, followed by an Arabic numeral 1 followed by a long series of 0s, which was particularly eye-catching.

Bang, bang, bang.

After the table, Han Sanye, Yu Dong, Chen Kexin, Chen Desheng, Huang Jianxin and a leader of the Suzhou Provincial Media and Radio Group, six people picked up the hammer and chiseled.

When the 100 million ice sculptures were smashed to pieces, Han Sanye happily announced: "As of 6 o'clock this afternoon, the mainland box office of our "October Siege" has successfully exceeded 100 million yuan. ”

There was a round of applause from the audience.

Yu Dong flew over with a look, and the assistant behind him understood, took out two bottles of luxuriously packaged champagne, and poured them into the champagne tower on the other side.

"These two bottles of wine were photographed when I traveled to France this year, and I originally planned to take them out to celebrate everyone when the box office broke 300 million, but now it seems that it doesn't hurt to take them out, and the box office in the same period is the same as "Three Guns", but the reputation is much better than them, so it seems that in this diamond period, it is not a problem for us to become champions. After Yu Dong finished speaking, he walked to the champagne tower and took a glass of wine. At this time, the talents in the audience were active one after another, and they each went to get wine glasses.

"Cheers!" for a while, the atmosphere was not warm.

Director Chen Desheng is really a little excited, dormant for several years, today finally saw the dawn again, the mainland box office alone has 100 million, counting Hong Kong Island, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and other places, this turnaround battle is beautiful, and when he returns to Hong Kong, there will definitely be a film company to ask him to direct a new movie, there will be no more three years of no work situation, he raised his glass, and said gratefully: "To achieve such good results, thank you for your support, thank you Han Sheng, Yu Sheng's trust in me, thank you for the cooperation of my old friends Peter and Director Huang, and thank you to all the actors here for their excellent performances, I would like to toast everyone. ”

Everyone filled their glasses, raised their glasses again, and drank them all.

"Everyone is open to eat and drink today, today's celebration banquet is just a preparatory ceremony, and when we officially defeat "Three Guns" and become the box office champion of this schedule, I will give you red envelopes at that time. ”

"Good!"

"The boss is mighty!"

The big boss spoke, how could everyone be unhappy, and they couldn't wait to sing a song "Unforgettable Tonight" together.

Fish looking for fish, shrimp looking for shrimp, each has its own circle, and you can't squeeze the circle, the circle of the hall level, you are not qualified to move forward at all, and it is equal to no big or small, and you have to eat and hang up properly.

Like Yu Dong and Han Sanye, the two of them pulled other big bosses to drink and chat together, and it is estimated that they will reach some cooperation intentions, of course, this kind of occasion will not be clapidated, after all, three cups of wine in the red dust, a pot of tea in the great cause of the thousand years, business, it is still necessary to sit down and negotiate.

The other creators laughed and talked in groups of three or five, or walked around the field like a loach with wine glasses, staggered and overlapping clothes.

In fact, Han Fei doesn't like this kind of occasion, the subordinates have to go to the superiors to toast, you can do it at will, and even if the peers usually can't look at each other, and even if they don't even get along, they have to pretend to change the cup on this occasion.

Desire is bitter, whether it is a smile or a drink, if you want connections and resources, this kind of occasion is naturally inevitable, like Fan Ye is particularly suitable for this kind of occasion, walking around in various circles with a glass of wine, 07 After the contract between Fan Ye and Huayi expired, he formed a studio by himself, there is no Qingge, and it is not "the two of us", in addition to brushing awards with his friend Li Yu in terms of movies, the rest of the big productions can only rely on their own long-sleeved dancing to earn resources.

Brother Chun went to record other programs, and Han Fei didn't know anyone he could, aside from the previous two drinks, he actually looked a little lonely, just like Eason sang in his pompous "The eighteenth alma mater dance that year, standing like a minion", but he didn't tearfully swear that you must see me in the future.

Fortunately, Liang Jiahui was still thinking about Han Fei, a young boy, and saw him standing drinking from a distance, and beckoned, "Fei Fei, come here." ”

Han Fei walked over quickly with a wine glass, little coffee, he resolutely couldn't put up a fight, the circle in front of him was quite big.

Zeng Zhiwei, a veteran Golden Statue actor, Li Min, the King of Heaven and the Golden Horse Actor, Nicholas Tse, the future Golden Statue Actor, is regarded as a successor by the Hong Kong Island film circle.

"You're a young boy, you're actually hiding on the side and drinking stuffy, come, drink. Liang Jiahui brought a bottle of red wine and poured it for Han Fei.

Han Fei hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Uncle Jiahui." ”

Zeng Zhiwei laughed, the horizontal flesh on his face was squeezed together, and said: "You stupid boy, everyone calls him Brother Hui, you call him uncle, you are demoting yourself by a generation." ”

Han Fei joked: "I don't have to descend, I'm already a generation lower, I grew up watching Hong Kong Island movies since I was a child, and Uncle Sheng didn't suffer." ”

"Then do you call me uncle or big brother?" Li Min, who was secretly laughing on the side, suddenly joked.

Hey, this is a problem, according to age, Zeng Zhiwei and Liang Jiahui are both born in the 50s, and Li Min is born in the 60s, the age difference is less than one round, and it is okay to call uncle, but Li Tianwang is well-maintained, and his appearance is the kind of son Fan of Yushu Linfeng, otherwise he would not have been invited to shoot "Mei Lanfang", so he looks like Uncle is a bit old.

For a while, Han Fei was really a little uncertain, calling Liang Jiahui an uncle because the two got along a lot when they were in Hengdian, Liang Jiahui regarded him as a nephew, Li Min and him had no rivalry, and they came late and left early, and the two had nothing to do with each other, so he had to smile awkwardly and politely, and took a sip of wine by the way.

Li Min smiled: "Haha, it's stumped." ”

"Yes, he confused me with this, he called me Brother Feng, and I called you Big Brother, tsk, what kind of generation am I?" Nicholas Tse also added to the chaos.

Liang Jiahui relieved the siege and said: "Forget it, don't be embarrassed for this little character, we can call it uncle like this, just call them brothers who are not declining fast enough, are they clear?"

Han Fei pursed his lips, relieved, hurriedly took a sip of the wine, and replied, "Ming, understood, I will punish myself with a glass." ”

Liang Jiahui patted Han Fei on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Slow down, don't choke, there are Academy Awards in April, are you interested in coming to Hong Kong Island to play?"

"Our crew is a Crouching Tiger, and we will definitely receive a lot of nominations at that time, and I will definitely come to the scene to applaud and cheer everyone. ”

After all, Li Min immigrated from the imperial capital, and his attitude towards Han Fei was warmer, and he was relieved: "Silly boy, don't look down on yourself, although the actor and supporting actor are not related to you, the best newcomer can still compete." ”

Han Fei said modestly: "I don't dare to expect individual awards, it's good to be able to witness the seniors of the crew get more trophies." ”

"I've pulled the car for you, and the organizing committee has to let you mention your name for this. Nicholas Tse also teased at this time.

Han Fei hurriedly waved his hand and excused himself: "Brother Feng, don't play with me, this question is from the premiere ceremony to going to major movie theaters to run roadshows, every time a reporter asks what it is like to sit in Nicholas Tse's car, I am stunned when I hear this question now." ”

"What are you panicking about, I won't eat you again. ”

"Brother Feng, you must be nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Academy Awards, in the future, you can make a movie by yourself, and I will pull the car for you, or the media will always make fun of this. ”

"You say nominate it, you nominate it, why don't you have confidence in yourself. ”

“……”

Nonsense, you are a local household register, I am an outsider, and in terms of the kind of local protectionism on Hong Kong Island, your nomination is not a sure thing.

Zeng Zhiwei also said: "Hou Shengzi, if you are also nominated for the Best Newcomer Award, I will really ask you to play a role if the next play is not good." ”

Han Fei bowed slightly and thanked: "Then thank you Uncle Zhiwei for your support, I also want to experience how the most authentic Hong Kong-style movies are shot." ”

"I'm afraid you won't be able to adapt to the fast pace of Hong Kong Island, haha. Zeng Zhiwei let out a hoarse demonic laugh.

"I don't think so, I've watched Fei Zai's filming for the past few months, and the level is really good among young people, don't let the pigeons go when the time comes." Liang Jiahui said while holding Zeng Zhiwei's shoulder.

"No problem, cheers. ”

"Cheers. ”
