Chapter 564: Original Soundtrack
The movie premiered by Zhonghuang Entertainment today is "Joyful", which is a comedy when you hear the name, and it is also a movie specially shot for festivals like the Spring Festival.
Regardless of whether the movie itself is good or not, hearing such a festive movie name can also make many audiences willing to enter the ticket.
Of course, this type of audience is basically some elderly audiences, after all, during the Chinese New Year, they choose to watch movies as an entertainment method, and when they see a movie with such a festive title, they are naturally willing to pay for a lottery at the beginning of the New Year.
What's more, in order to shoot this movie, Zhonghuang Entertainment invited many stars to join and make cameos.
Even a supporting role is a star with a face in the entertainment industry, which shows the huge lineup of this movie.
Originally, according to Meng Su's meaning, he didn't come to see this movie much, this type of movie, at first glance, you know that there is no connotation, purely using the festival as a selling point, piling up a shocking cast, and then in the plot of Tongguò to flatter, wanting to get the ideal box office.
It is completely a commercial film in a commercial film, and it is purely a movie made for money.
However, he had to come today, on the one hand, because Bai Chongshi had spent a lot of time on his kind invitation, and on the other hand, this time he had to really find out which way out was the way out for Chinese films.
This year's Spring Festival schedule can be described as a blockbuster, but according to today's blockbuster standards, only four movies with a cost of more than 100 million yuan in this schedule can be called blockbusters.
These four movies are two domestic films: "The End of the World" and "Joyful", two Hollywood blockbusters "Super Cop" and "Emergency Landing"!
However, "The End of the World", which was pinned on by all filmmakers in China a few years ago, was a complete defeat in the face of "Super Warriors", and even everyone expected that even if it was defeated, at least it would be a tie, and it did not maintain.
The so-called traditional Chinese art blockbuster completely defeated the Hollywood blockbuster "Super Cop", which was hot in action and spectacular.
However, just when the Chinese filmmakers felt embarrassed, a newcomer in the film industry was born, with an innovative ticket sales model, with a campus love movie with youth as the selling point, it forcibly stopped the Hollywood blockbuster "Super Men" from attacking the city and grabbing the land in the Chinese film market.
The most shocking thing is that this campus love, which costs only about 30 million, not only stopped the box office results of "Super Men" after the screening, but also pressed step by step, constantly compressing the other party's box office.
This is the ending that no one expected before.
Even Meng Su didn't expect it, but after he attended Yang Ming's premiere, he immediately understood.
The reason why Yang Ming's movie is so popular is because this movie can resonate with people and can make people be reminded of the memories of their youth in the past.
After Meng Su watched this movie, he also felt that his eyes lit up, he seemed to see another way out of Huaxia movies through this movie, so after receiving an invitation from Bai Chongshi who spent a lot of thought and used a lot of connections, he hesitated a little and agreed to attend the premiere of "Joyful" today.
Sometimes, it is only after comparison that you know the advantages and disadvantages of the high.
At the same time, tonight's Hollywood blockbuster "Emergency Landing" also premiered this evening, but they were playing away, and this premiere was extremely simple, not as powerful as Zhonghuang Entertainment.
The two blockbusters costing more than 100 million yuan both premiered today, which shows that the box office competition for the Spring Festival schedule of the film is also at the most critical moment.
Even, many people seem to have smelled some gunsmoke.
2 hours later, after watching the premiere, Meng Su's face was calm, and he left the studio in a car alone, although he is also a well-known figure in the film industry, but an old man still can't attract the media who focus on big-name stars.
Back at home, Meng Su sat on the sofa, closed his eyes and thought about the "Joyful" he had already watched tonight, with a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth.
He can be sure that the final box office of this movie will definitely be a big hit, and it will definitely not be a problem to recover the cost, and it will make a lot of money.
But this movie is not a good movie, maybe it is just a successful movie.
At this moment, Meng Su already has a plan in mind for the movie review he will write tomorrow, and when he takes a break, he is ready to start writing.
Yang Ming is in the newly bought villa in Yanjing, Su Su is still in Fuzhou, and he is the only one in Yanjing at this time.
At this time, he was watching the news of the premiere of the two movies tonight on his computer.
Two blockbusters released at the same time, although these two movies are blockbusters with a production cost of more than 100 million, but the treatment they receive is worlds apart.
Zhonghuang Entertainment's "Joyful" is where several big-name stars appear to cheer, plus many well-known figures, the premiere held by Zhonghuang Entertainment Company is simply a grand event in the entertainment industry.
It also reflects the heritage of Zhonghuang Entertainment and Bai Chongshi in the entertainment industry from another aspect.
Giants are not called for nothing.
Compared with the huge momentum of the premiere of Zhonghuang Entertainment, "Emergency Landing" is just an ordinary premiere, whether it is a guest or a media reporter, there are basically two or three cats of all sizes, and their influence is limited.
But I don't know why, Yang Ming feels that the threat of "Emergency Landing" is much greater than that of "Joyful".
Dogs that bite people generally do not bark.
"Do you want to do something to deal with?" Yang Ming frowned and began to think.
He can be very sure that the simultaneous release of these two blockbusters will inevitably affect the box office of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", there is no doubt about it.
Generally speaking, after 7 days of screening, a movie has already passed a period of rapid growth, and the box office performance will slowly decline.
This is a normal phenomenon, but Yang Ming doesn't want to decline so quickly, especially with the name of Zhonghuang Entertainment, which makes him very unhappy.
"Something must be done!" Yang Ming pointed his finger on the table, thinking in his heart, otherwise, "Those Years" was sandwiched between these two blockbusters, and the box office would definitely be squeezed by then.
But he couldn't think of a good way for a while.
Thinking of this method, Yang Ming couldn't help but shake his head slightly, every industry has its unspoken rules, theaters are not department stores, and they can reduce prices and promote at will, so whether it is for the cinema or for Oriental DreamWorks, it will have a bad impact.
Yang Ming pouted, this method is too old-fashioned.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't think of a good idea, and in desperation, he opened the penguin music network at random, ready to find a few music to listen to, and stimulate his thinking.
Suddenly, when Yang Ming's hand froze, a thought seemed to flash in his mind, but it was like a meteor, and he couldn't catch it.
"Uh!" he closed his eyes, racking his brain, but he still didn't remember what the faint thought that had just popped into his mind was.
Yang Ming could feel that this faint thought that suddenly appeared in his heart would definitely be an idea that would be helpful to him.
But for some reason, he couldn't let this thought come to his mind clearly.
Propaganda "movie" just now he was going to open the Penguin music network "Penguin? no!
What about music? Probably not.
No, it looks like music!
When Yang Ming thought of the word music, he immediately felt that he had grasped something, music, yes is music, what kind of music?
And aren't you going to release a record?
So how about the soundtrack of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years"?
Thinking of this, Yang Ming suddenly stood up, walking back and forth, looking a little excited, yes, this is the idea.
The original soundtrack of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was released.
With the popularity of this movie he made, as the director and starring actor, Yang Ming's popularity in China has reached a higher level, and the heroine Chen Yiran seems to be the successor of the new generation of jade girls.
However, in addition to the two most popular male and female protagonists, he and Chen Yiran, the most popular movie is the soundtrack in this movie.
In particular, the theme song of "Those Years" and the ending song of "Meet You in the Sea of People" are wildly sought after by countless young people, and they like these two songs to the bone.
Many fans and fans are still leaving messages in Yang Ming's scarf, asking when he will release the records of these two songs.
It seems that the time is now.
Yang Ming waved his fist, he thought of this, and immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Liu Xinsheng.
Tomorrow, Dongfang Huayin will also hold a grand record conference, and at the same time, these two new songs will also be released on the Penguin Music Network, and the MVs of these two songs will be edited and put on the popcorn network by using the wonderful shots in the movie.
Using the influence of the film's original music, you may be able to achieve surprising results!
In fact, in the previous life, many movies that did well at the box office had such successful examples.
Perhaps, this time, maybe he Yang Ming also succeeded?
The next day, when Yang Mingxing hurriedly felt that DreamWorks had not had time to edit the MV, he saw the news of the major media that came out today, and couldn't help but be startled by the movie reviews written by one of the people inside.
Today's entertainment news is basically news that reports on the premiere of two blockbusters last night.
Especially for the "Joyful" filmed by Zhonghuang Entertainment, it is basically a news report based on praise and praise, although some media feel very uncomfortable with this commercial film purely for the purpose of collecting money, but the news reported is not out of line.
There hasn't been much news about Emergency Landing, but there haven't been any negative press reviews either.
Because the first-day box office results of these two films have come out.
"Beaming" had a box office of 49 million on the first day.
"Emergency Landing" had a box office of 43 million on the first day, followed closely behind!
As for "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", the box office yesterday was 36 million, and the box office fell sharply, which shows that the influence of the box office squeeze of these two blockbusters is very great.
But Yang Ming has no choice, he can't prevent the release of these two movies, and he still has to see the truth at the box office.
It's just that Yang Ming found that the box office of "Joyful" yesterday certainly overwhelmed the Hollywood blockbuster "Emergency Landing", but the news of various entertainment media did not report it with much fanfare, but only reported it a little, and it was up to the point.
It seems that various media outlets were frightened by the fact that the box office performance of "The End of the World" was also excellent on the first day of the year, but it fell sharply the next day.
Otherwise, with the urine nature of the media, everyone who does not publicize firecrackers and gongs is known to everyone who has no wind and grass.
It can be seen that they are also afraid of Zhonghuang Entertainment's "Jubilant", and there will also be completely different box office results after the premiere of "The End of the World".
It's just that these are not the ones that attract Yang Ming's attention the most, and now his eyes are on a person's film review articles.
"A comedy full of copper stench, that's all!", Meng Su!
The title is extremely shocking and eye-catching, even if Yang Ming swept the title at a glance, he was also attracted by this title, especially when he saw the name under this title, he couldn't wait to look at this movie review.
After a while, when he read this movie review, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he didn't know if this time Zhonghuang Entertainment was picking up a stone and hitting himself in the foot.
The vitality of that old man is too strong, even if Yang Ming himself sees the spicy and sarcastic comments in this film review, he can't help but feel that he is covered in a cold sweat, it seems that this film review has Zhonghuang Entertainment and that Bai Chongshi feel better.
"There is no acting, no plot, no connotation, except for the familiar faces and old-fashioned and vulgar funny plots, I really can't think of this movie, there is something that can make me remember!"
"A blockbuster film that costs more than 100 million yuan, of which the actors' salaries account for two-thirds, if this is also a blockbuster, I think as long as there is money, this type of movie, Huaxia can make 100 films every year, there is no difficulty;
""The End of the World" is standing and dying, and "Joyful" is kneeling, these are two different methods chosen by two film companies in the face of the invasion of Hollywood blockbusters, maybe in the end, only a movie like "Joyful" can survive to the end, but is this type of movie the movie we want in Chinese films?"
In the first half of the film review, Meng Su criticized the movie "Joyful" as useless, and even "The End of the World", which had a huge box office loss, was not as good.
It can be seen that he does not want to see the movie of Zhonghuang Entertainment in his heart.
At this time, Liu Xinsheng also came to the company, and when he stretched out his head and saw that Yang Ming was reading this film review written by Meng Su, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I estimate that Bai Chongshi will be angry with this old man's film!"
The situation is just as Liu Xinsheng said, at this time, in his own home, Bai Chongshi took all the newspapers of the day from the housekeeper.
After flipping through several newspapers, his face was full of smiles, and his heart was full of self-satisfaction, especially last night when he received the box office figures of the day, this joy was all over his body.
It seems that his blockbuster shooting strategy is still right!
To make a movie with a cost of more than 100 million yuan, it is necessary to use big-name superstars to support the scene, or special effects shots to attract the audience's attention.
As for playing art? Bai Chongshi scoffed at this model, can he make money? Just look at Lu Enzhong of Tianxia Pictures to know the fate of making art films.
He also heard that many viewers were watching the news that the art blockbuster fell asleep, and now he thinks about it even more happily.
That's how blockbusters should be made.
However, when Bai Chongshi picked up a new newspaper and saw an article on it, his face suddenly turned pale, and the more he read it, the more angry his heart became, and after a while, he threw the newspaper in his hand to the ground fiercely, and spit out a name in his mouth:
"Meng Su!"
He really didn't expect that the well-known film critic he had worked so hard to invite would be so ruthless to the movie shot by his company and criticize the movie for nothing!
Actually, if it was just some back-to-the-ear comments, he wouldn't be unable to listen to them, but the movie reviews written by Meng Su were simply pointing at his white nose and scolding.
Especially in the second half of the article, this dead old man praised the movie made by the person he didn't want to see the most!
Even, the old man said at the end, "The movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", which was a huge success with youth as a selling point, is a way out of the current Chinese film dilemma, that is, to impress the audience with plot and creativity!", this kind of words to help that kid advertise nakedly.
If there is anyone who Bai Chongshi wants to see the most at this moment, there is no doubt that it is Yang Ming.
This kind of unwelcome is already doomed from the moment Yang Ming helped Li Xiangjun make a comeback.
And this kind of unwillingness to see is at the extreme when Yang Ming used a movie to smash the Zhonghuang Casino!
Originally, Bai Chongshi had already felt extremely uncomfortable with the movie made by Yang Ming during the Spring Festival, but now Meng Su, an old man, is good, and he has come to add a fire to him, burning this discomfort to the extreme.
Meng Su compared Yang Ming's "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" with "Joyful" produced by his own company, and then disdained the movies produced by his own company, and also wore a big hat of 'movies full of copper smell', how could Bai Chongshi stand it.
Especially when Bai Chongshi thought that Meng Su had spent a lot of effort to invite him here, he was so angry that a mouthful of blood spurted out in his heart.
What is this?
He thought about his actions as if he had personally delivered a gun full of bullets to the enemy, who then took the gun and shot him.
It's so hateful.
Bai Chongshi looked at the newspaper under his feet angrily, this time he estimated that his face was lost.
Even if the box office results of "Joyful" are popular all the way, it can't change the review that the movie made by his company is a movie full of copper smell.
That old man was so hateful.
However, now Bai Chongshi has no way, the old man is so old, it can be said that he has no desire, he has no way to deal with the old man, so he can only grit his teeth and ignore it.
He can't deal with the old man, and others don't have to.
He picked up the phone and called his subordinates and said, "Is there any movement over there at Oriental DreamWorks?"
"Boss, I heard they're holding a new album release over there!"
"Album?"
"Well, it looks like the soundtrack of the movie they filmed!"
When Bai Chongshi heard this, he suddenly felt bad in his heart.
