After filming "Bright Sword", this is also about to be the New Year, that is, the domestic Chinese New Year schedule has just ended, and this year's Chinese New Year champion was unexpectedly won by Feng Xiaogang's "Big Shot", and this box office is also good, reaching 43 million.

It should be said that this result is still quite good, and it is also the number one in the Lunar New Year file, and there is no one who is his opponent.

However, Director Feng is also more capable of firing guns, and before the film was released, he released a lot of bold words. For example, it is estimated that the box office can have 100 million, and the worst must be 70 million, and then said that the cost of our film is high, and the production fee is 30 million, plus 10 million publicity, this is not 120 million, and the cost will not come back.

Now that the results are out, Director Feng is still very able to say, let's get back to our roots, we don't rely on the domestic market, we have to look at the overseas market, you know, the film "Big Names" has been bought by the Columbia company in the United States The global distribution rights, so we have to look at the overseas market.

As for the domestic box office, Director Feng also said that blame piracy, if there is no piracy, the Lao Tzu can get 500 million!

Director Feng's character, sometimes it is indeed easier to brag, and he is easy to be used by reporters in this aspect, you know, this reporter is sometimes really unreliable, such as the matter of the Fenjiu Distillery, it is all caused by these people.

But if you want to talk about the film "Big Wrist", it is a very classic, Wu Xiang likes it very much, many classic lines, such as Li Chengwei's planning theory of buying a house, although it is from the mouth of a snake spirit, but he will really say it in the future.

So, sometimes this reality is crazier than fiction or movies......

This Chinese New Year file is also in the past, and it should be the same in the domestic film industry in 2001, but this has to be a year-end summary. We film critics don't need you filmmakers to do this job.

"Hello audience friends, welcome to watch this episode of our program, today we invited famous film critics, Jiang Xiaoyu and Cheng Qingsong, we are here to present a special program for you. "The host on this TV, Wu Xiang knows, is the Zhao Ziqi who later came out of CCTV to mix in the entertainment industry.

"Hello everyone. ”

"Hello everyone!"

It's not Jiang Xiaoyu who is fighting alone today, there is a guy named Cheng Qingsong next to him, this person is actually very clear to Jiang Xiaoyu. People are much more capable than themselves. There may not be many people who know Cheng Qingsong's name, but when it comes to some programs, such as "The Golden Years", for example, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival. Yenching University Student Film Festival ...... And so on, if you are careful. There is a chance to find this person in the list of staff. He has been a planner or writer for the above programs and activities, and he also graduated from Yenching Film Academy, and Wu Xiang is still a major, the Department of Literature!

But don't think that such a person is very old, he is only in his thirties.

"We're on this show today. The main reason is that now is also the New Year, and the most important schedule has also passed, let's summarize it, last year. That is, the 2001 movie ......" At this time, Zhao Ziqi pointed to the topic, of course, she is the host, and the work of commenting, that is, the work of mainly speaking, is not hers.

Jiang Xiaoyu came first, he often appeared on this show, although Cheng Qingsong was menacing, but he couldn't be intimidated, he had to take the initiative, so he said: "Just summarize this matter, I think it's very good, just start a company now, if you don't have a year-end bonus, then you can't keep anyone." Our movie is too, a foreign blockbuster, this last year came to our country, it was really a lot of money. That's right, what Mummy 2, what Pearl Harbor, Rush Hour 2, these are all good, but our domestic movie list this year is average, let's put it this way, except for the "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", and the recent "Big Names", this is basically nothing else. Oh, alas......"

After Jiang Xiaoyu finished speaking, it seemed that the show could be over, yes, you have said everything, what do others say?

But Cheng Qingsong is very talented, he will not let this show end early, "If you want me to watch it, in this year's film market, our domestic film list is okay." Not to mention anything else, "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty" also broke 100 million at the box office, and it should be this year's champion. As for Director Feng's "Big Names", the box office is also good, more than 40 million, plus several other small-budget movies, if you want me to see it, this year is not bad. ”

Sure enough, Cheng Qingsong stood on the opposite side of Jiang Xiaoyu, this show, it's generally like this, if it's a group of harmony, it won't be interesting.

"But they didn't make any money!" Jiang Xiaoyu immediately began to fight back, "Look, let's talk about "The Emperor of Han Wu", Wu Xiang said before, this film has an investment of 50 million, and what is the box office now, even if it is added to the two sides of the strait, it is only more than 13 million." We all know that what can be obtained in this system is almost one-third of the box office, which means that this film has such a high box office and so many awards, but it still hasn't paid back. And "Big Shot" is even worse, with an investment of 30 million, and 10 million in publicity, the box office is only more than 40 million, and this will be lost to grandma's house!"

I have to say that what Jiang Xiaoyu said is reasonable.

Even if this topic is opened, although this show is called a year-end summary, the problem is that there are really not many movies that can be talked about, and many films have little box office, which means that there are very few people who have seen it.

But Cheng Qingsong will not be defeated, just listen to him say: "You can't look at it like this, there are still many channels for a movie to make money, and the current box office of "The Emperor of Han Wu" is at least a return to the cost." And "Big Names" doesn't have an overseas market? You must know that many films are good abroad, I think "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" in recent years, and the recent "Get in the car, let's go". That's all pretty good, so I'm still bullish on it, and this year is stronger than usual. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu immediately laughed and fought back, "The overseas market is very strange, you crooked nuts don't know what's going on, you look at things differently than us." The two examples you gave are very rare, if you want me to see it, I am afraid that the results of the release of "Big Names" abroad will not be very good, this film mainly relies on jokes to win, but how can foreigners understand the essence of our Chinese language? It's like when we watch European and American films, sometimes we don't understand the jokes they say?"

Jiang Xiaoyu still has two brushes, and he predicts the future based on the current situation.

"And what about "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty", do you say that he will not go abroad? I have seen this historical film, to be honest. As far as Wu Xiang and my junior brother are concerned, we can call it that. Just him. I didn't really have a good impression of him at first. Cheng Qingsong directly diverted the topic.

"Hehehe...... "Jiang Xiaoyu can still be happy, this show is a mouth cannon, you dig up a little black history, this mouth cannon is more interesting, so. He asked, "What do you say?"

"You know, he's from the same school as me. Nian a major. Right. I once went back to school, when Wu Xiang was a little famous, so I asked my teacher about this person, and they said yes. Drink! This Wu Xiang, when the exam was held, the breath was very loud. As far as the fifth and sixth generation directors are concerned, then there is no such thing as looking, just this person, that is called a crazy ......" What Cheng Qingsong said is too exaggerated.

"Giggle...... "Zhao Ziqi can't even look at it." "Is that so? Director Wu has been on our show, I don't look like it. ”

Cheng Qingsong also smiled, "It's a little bit of artistic exaggeration." ”

"Hahaha......" The other two laughed, and Jiang Xiaoyu was still missing, "You're not afraid that people will sue you?"

"If he sues me, it will prove that he is the kind of person I said!" But later, looking at a few of his works, this guy really has crazy capital! Anyway, when I was in my twenties, at most I was writing something, and if I wanted to direct a play, I couldn't do it, not to mention that this guy also invested by himself, which was even more powerful. Anyway, I admire it. ”

"You admire, and then you helped your little junior brother at the Golden Rooster Awards? Helped him canvass for votes, didn't you?" Jiang Xiaoyu's tone and expression were completely joking.

"Hahaha...... This is really not, it was those judges and teachers at the time, to be honest, I also liked this film. Really, from the director's point of view, such a big film, two and a half hours before and after, the story is so intricate, the whole plot has to do ups and downs, so many war scenes, it's really not easy to shoot, really. As far as the judges said, they didn't believe this scene at all, it was filmed by a person in his twenties, and they said that it was completely impossible!"

"So powerful?" Jiang Xiaoyu wasn't joking this time.

At that time, almost all the judges and teachers said so, and they also said that they wanted to follow the appearance of this movie, and the investment of 50 million was not to mention. ”

"50 million is less?"

"Less! The judge teacher said, without seventy or eighty million, this film can't come out, and if Hollywood makes it, it is estimated that it will be less than 100 million, US dollars. ”

"Really?"

…… This show then began to talk about other things, such as the recently released "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" in China, which is the first episode of Harry Potter, and "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", which are all popular films, of course, the first episode of Harry Potter only got more than 10 million RMB box office.

However, some people are not very concerned about these issues.

"Son, do you make any money here?" asked this question, it was none other than Wu Xiang's mother!

Actually, Wu Xiang is eating with his parents at this time, of course, his house is not big now, it is normal to watch TV while eating, and the movie channel is Wu's mother and Wu's father's favorite now.

"Auntie, don't worry, Xiao Wu must have made money, the people on TV don't know at all, you, rest assured, Xiao Wu knows it. "It's Hai Qing who said this, that's right, there is one more her at the Wu family's dinner table this time.

Why did Haiqing come?

Didn't you say yes, you can meet your parents, yes, after this filming, Wu Xiang followed Haiqing back to her hometown first, stayed for less than two days, and immediately returned to Shencheng, and the parents on both sides saw each other.

"That's it, that's good, I said that my son can't be stupid enough to make a loss-making deal, hehehe...... "Mother Wu is satisfied."

"Okay, you old lady, why do you care so much, what can you do if you lose it? Our son can't eat?" Dad Wu is still the head of the family.

In fact, the most disturbing thing about Wu Xiang now is that what is said on TV is that the judges and teachers don't believe that the scene was filmed by young people in their twenties, will these guys take a closer look at themselves because of this, and then find out that they are actually reborn......

"Son, why are you sweating?"

"No, I'm here to eat, come, eat, it's ...... when the food is cold" Hurry, Wu Xiang covered up his embarrassment with eating. (To be continued......)
